(Ho Chi Minh City) On 24 April 2026, at the Cambodia’s Commercial Office in Ho Chi Minh City, the Commercial Attaché of the Royal Embassy of Cambodia to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam facilitated and facilitated and coordinated the organization an exchange meeting on “Cambodia-Vietnam Cooperation for a Sustainable Cashew Value Chain” under the high presidency of H.E. Samheng Bora, Secretary of State and Chairman of the Export Promotion Task Force of the Ministry of Commerce of Cambodia.
 

The meeting was attended by leaders and representatives from relevant ministries, institutions, associations, the banking sector, and numerous private sector representatives from both Cambodia and Vietnam.
 

During this significant event, the leadership of MB Bank (Vietnam) and MB Bank (Cambodia) Plc. officially unveiled a comprehensive suite of financial solutions and a modernized financial ecosystem designed to support the entire cashew value chain between the two nations. This new strategy focuses primarily on providing trade finance and working capital for importing enterprises, revolutionizing cross-border payment systems with high-speed processing within a one-hour window, and building a digital connectivity network that links farmers, collectors, processing factories, and exporters.
 

These solutions not only address critical financing and payment bottlenecks but also contribute significantly to standardizing supply chains and increasing value-added opportunities for the entire industry. Notably, representatives from the Ministry of Commerce of Cambodia and the Cashew nut Association of Cambodia (CAC) expressed strong support for MB’s financial model, recognizing it as an effective mechanism to improve financial accessibility for farmers and collectors while strengthening a sustainable and inclusive cashew ecosystem.
 

Currently, Cambodia is emerging as a major global player in cashew production, with yields reaching nearly 1 million tons in 2025 and export values totaling approximately USD 809 million. In response to the Royal Government's goal of increasing production to 2 million tons, MBCambodia reaffirms its commitment as a leading cross-border financial connector. The bank aims to promote formal, transparent trade and enhance the international competitiveness of the Cambodia-Vietnam cashew industry on the global stage.
