What sporting goods does Vietnam manufacture for export at wholesale?

Vietnam's primary wholesale sporting goods export categories include: athletic footwear (Nike, Adidas, Puma, New Balance contract factories — OEM and brand-licensed manufacturing for global brands; and independent Vietnamese manufacturers producing mid-range athletic footwear for wholesale buyers); sports and performance apparel (jerseys, tracksuits, yoga wear, outdoor performance clothing, team sports kits — for global brand supply chains and private label wholesale buyers); outdoor backpacks, bags, and accessories (for Columbia, The North Face, and private label buyers); soccer and team sports equipment; e-bikes (growing Vietnamese e-bike manufacturing for European wholesale buyers); and yoga mats, resistance bands, and accessories (Binh Duong and Ho Chi Minh City manufacturers).

Why have Nike and Adidas moved so much of their manufacturing to Vietnam?

Nike and Adidas have both substantially shifted footwear manufacturing from China to Vietnam over the past 10–15 years for several structural reasons: labour cost advantages (Vietnamese manufacturing wages are approximately 30–50% lower than coastal Chinese manufacturing wages, though the gap is narrowing); trade agreement benefits (Vietnam has CPTPP and EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement — EVFTA — membership, reducing tariffs on Vietnamese footwear exports to the EU from 12-17% to near 0% for EVFTA-qualifying goods; the US-China trade war tariffs also incentivised further Vietnam investment); established supply chain ecosystem (after decades of investment, Vietnam has developed a comprehensive footwear component supply ecosystem — soles, insoles, uppers, laces, adhesives — in Binh Duong and Dong Nai); and export diversification strategy (both brands sought to reduce concentration risk from excessive China dependence). Vietnam now accounts for approximately 50% of Nike's global footwear production volume.
