In recent years, driven by manufacturing expansion, upgrading of the consumer goods market and foreign-funded petrochemical projects, the scale of Vietnam's polypropylene market has continued to expand, but domestic production capacity is still unable to fully meet the rapidly growing demand, and the country is highly dependent on imports.
Vietnam's polypropylene production primarily relies on domestic refining and olefin projects, primarily concentrated in the southern provinces of Ba Ria-Vung Tau and Quang Ngai. However, compared to rapidly growing consumer demand, domestic production remains insufficient.
Vietnam's downstream demand for polypropylene is mainly concentrated in the packaging industry, fiber and woven products, automobile and home appliance parts and other fields.
The Vietnam’s government has listed the petrochemical and new materials industries as one of its priority development industries and is actively attracting foreign investment.
In the next 5-10 years, the industry will still have great investment potential in capacity construction, foreign investment cooperation and green material innovation.
Vietnam's Polypropylene (PP) imports continue to increase, with China being the largest source of imports. According to the analyst statistics, approximately 1,700 importers in Vietnam imported polypropylene in 2024, totaling US$1.126 billion. According to the analyst analysis, China and South Korea have always been the top two sources of polypropylene (PP) imports for Vietnam. In 2024, Vietnam imported US$365 million and US$290 million of polypropylene from China and South Korea, respectively. From January to August 2025, Vietnam's cumulative polypropylene imports reached approximately US$638 million, an increase of approximately 19% over the same period in

Overview of Foreign Investment
Investment Background
Vietnam's polypropylene industry is experiencing steady growth. With the continued expansion of Vietnam's manufacturing, packaging, automotive parts, home appliances, and construction sectors, demand for polypropylene continues to increase. However, local production capacity is insufficient to meet domestic consumption, and Vietnam still needs to import large quantities of PP raw materials annually. This supply-demand gap provides a promising market opportunity for foreign investment in PP production and processing projects. Furthermore, the Vietnamese government is promoting the localization of the chemical and polymer materials supply chains and actively attracting foreign investment to chemical parks and industrial clusters.Investment Advantages
- Political stability and rapid economic development. The Vietnamese government has strong governing capabilities, consistent policies, and a focus on economic development and improving people's livelihoods.
- Relatively low labor costs.
- Strategically located in the eastern part of the Indochina Peninsula, with a 3,260-kilometer coastline and numerous ports, transportation is convenient.
- Relatively relaxed policies and regulations provide foreign investors with comprehensive legal protections and generous preferential policies.
- Vietnam has a high level of openness to the outside world, with 19 free trade agreements signed or in progress. Investors can use platforms such as RCEP and the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area to explore a broader international market.
Investment Regulations
According to Vietnam's new investment law, foreign investment in the polypropylene (PP) industry is permitted. According to Vietnam's investment regulations, foreign investment can be conducted in direct and indirect forms, such as wholly foreign-owned enterprises, joint ventures, investment and financing, and mergers and acquisitions.Import Martket Overview
The demand for Polypropylene (PP) in Vietnam is growing, but local production capacity is limited and the country is highly dependent on imports. According to the analyst analysis, polypropylene (PP) is one of the most widely used general-purpose plastics globally, widely used in packaging, home appliances, automotive parts, textile fibers, and construction materials. Despite rapid growth in Vietnam's manufacturing industry in recent years, local PP production capacity is limited, leading to a high reliance on imports.Vietnam's Polypropylene (PP) imports continue to increase, with China being the largest source of imports. According to the analyst statistics, approximately 1,700 importers in Vietnam imported polypropylene in 2024, totaling US$1.126 billion.
