The ministry said that so far, the development of industries and trade has basically followed the set growth scenario. Industrial production activities nationwide still maintained a decent growth rate amid difficult conditions due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic in some provinces and cities with large industrial parks.

Along with that, exports continued to maintain a high growth rate compared to the same period last year. So far, total retail sales of goods have reached about 38% of the year plan and exports have posted more than 44% of the year plan. The industrial production index is at a higher level than planned, with 9.9% in the first five months of the year./.
