This figure marks a slight increase from the previous month's growth rate of 10.8% recorded in March 2025. The updated data, released on May 6, 2025, highlights Vietnam's continuing positive trajectory in consumer spending.
The year-over-year comparison underscores a gradual yet steady recovery in Vietnam’s retail sector, likely supported by robust domestic demand and a resilient economic environment.
