The association's deputy general secretary, Vo Thi Thanh Huong, said a Swiss organisation has helped set up online trading platforms at www.mekongfishmarket.com and www.pangasiusmap.com.
They would be launched by the end of this month, and through them pangasius exporters can sell their products globally, she said.
While www.mekongfishmarket.com would contain news about the association's 50 members and their products, www.pangasiusmap.com would carry information about the farming areas and the standards they meet, she said.
Information about each of the more than 1,100 ponds with a combined area of around 12.3 million square metres will be regularly updated.
Nguyen Ngoc Hai, chairman of the Thoi An Pangasius Co-operative based in Can Tho, said the websites would be of great support to the tra industry.
Farmers can get up-to-date information about the market and fish and feed prices, he said.
To help the online market work efficiently, the association wants a logistics network developed.
Once the network comes into being, all tra fish products would be standardised, Huong said.
