Director of the AEGIC Barley Market Mary Raynes said that as Vietnam’s beer output is expected to grow by 2-3 percent annually, barley imports are likely to rise to 330,000 tons by 2030, nearly double the figure in 2019.

Meanwhile, Executive Chairman of Barley Australia Megan Sheehy explained how Australia’s malt barley accreditation system adds value for customers.

Professor Matthew Tucker from the University of Adelaide and barley malt flavor research fellow Sue Stewart, meanwhile, presented cutting-edge research and information comparing the flavor components of barley varieties from Australia and its competitors.

With over 40 representatives from Vietnam’s beer and alcoholic beverage market, the event opened up new trade opportunities between the two countries.

Australia’s barley sector is keen to seek alternative markets and is targeting Asian nations, including Indonesia, India, and Vietnam.
