Strategic Meeting with ASTA in Washington, D.C.

1. Strategic Meeting with ASTA in Washington, D.C. on Tax Policy and Market Impact

During its recent business trip to the United States, Lien Thanh Corp held an official meeting with the American Spice Trade Association (ASTA) in Washington, D.C. to discuss new tax policies and trade regulations introduced under President Donald Trump.

The discussion focused on recent changes in U.S. trade policy and their potential impact on the global spice supply chain, particularly black pepper. As the world’s largest exporter of black pepper, Vietnam plays a critical role in shaping global supply and pricing. Any adjustments in U.S. import tariffs or trade regulations may directly or indirectly influence Vietnamese black pepper prices in the international market.

The meeting provided valuable insights into regulatory updates and reinforced Lien Thanh Corp’s commitment to maintaining high-quality standards, compliance, and stable supply to meet the expectations of the U.S. and global markets.

2. Participation in the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York – Expanding Global Connections

In addition to the meeting in Washington, D.C., Lien Thanh Corp participated in the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York City, one of North America’s largest specialty food and beverage trade events.

The exhibition offered an excellent platform to showcase Vietnam’s premium black pepper and spice products to importers, distributors, and retail partners from around the world. Through direct engagement with industry stakeholders, Lien Thanh Corp further reinforced Vietnam’s position as the leading global supplier of high-quality black pepper with strong export capabilities.

This U.S. visit reflects Lien Thanh Corp’s strategic direction: proactively monitoring international policy developments, adapting to global market shifts, and continuously strengthening the global reputation of Vietnamese black pepper.
