Agricultural processing enterprises in Quang Ninh, Vietnam, are increasingly relying on imported raw materials to mitigate local shortages. For example, the Quang Ninh Pine Joint Stock Company now sources 50% of its resin from Central America to maintain production stability, as local resin provides less than 10% of its 16,000-ton annual requirement.

While these imports ensure a steady supply, they introduce operational risks, including higher shipping costs and price volatility. The company faces potential losses if market prices for finished products decline during the lengthy transit periods required for imported goods.
