In Vietnam, the stationery market has been established for a long time. The development of the market is associated with an increase in human demand. Initially, the market introduced basic products such as pens and paper. Gradually, many products were developed, such as paper clips, file bags, documents, coloured pens, tape, staples, sticky notes, printers, and many other high-tech office products.

According to research from BlueWeave Consulting, Vietnam's stationery and office equipment market will reach a value of $487.1 million in 2022 and is expected to continue to reach $512.4 million in 2027, a compound annual growth rate of 6.2 per cent from 2021-2027.

Infrastructure development in Vietnam has led to increased prospects for many businesses building offices in the country, as well as an increasing number of schools, commercial buildings, and the number of small- and medium-sized enterprises. The Vietnamese office equipment and stationery market is witnessing significant growth.

Because of the impressive growth, over time, products are forced to develop and change according to consumer trends and requirements.

Manufacturers' products must compete in terms of use, shape, design, quality, and price. This is also a catalyst for foreign businesses planning to access the Vietnamese market.
