(VOVworld) - Soaring shipments from Vietnam into Mexico led to a hike in bilateral trade revenue within the first eight months of 2015.

According to the Vietnam Embassy’s Trade Office in Mexico, the eight-month turnover hit more 1.3 billion USD, an annual climb of 51%.

Commercial counselor Hoang Tuan Viet said Vietnam’s exports growth focused on phones and components, computers/electronic devices, garment-textiles, vehicles and spare parts, fisheries products, and machinery.

Last year, trade turnover between the two nations hit 2.26 billion USD, climbing 40% from 2013, reported the Mexican central bank and economics ministry.
