Recently, some agricultural export companies, such as pepper and coffee, have reported incidents where export containers, upon reaching importers, have been found either short or missing cargo.
In response to these occurrences, representatives from the Agency of Foreign Trade (Ministry of Industry and Trade) stated that there is currently no conclusive evidence pinpointing where and when these cargo losses are happening. The transportation of goods involves multiple stages and various entities handling the cargo.
“In the immediate term, the Agency of Foreign Trade has contacted and discussed with VPSA and Saigon Newport Corporation, urging both parties to convene and exchange directly, provide additional information to clarify the causes of these incidents, and implement measures to enhance security and safety for exported and imported shipments”, said the Agency of Foreign Trade representative.
It is expected that on the morning of June 13, VPSA and Saigon Newport Corporation will meet directly to discuss this issue.
Previously, VPSA issued a warning about some members of the association experiencing partial loss of exported cargo. Specifically, importers discovered shortages compared to the contracted weight, while the total weight of the container, including its contents, as recorded by port weighing documents, indicated that the cargo was of sufficient weight at the time of unloading at the port.
Thus, on 06/14/2024, domestic pepper prices are trading around VND 160,000 – 162,000/kg.
