1. Vietnam – A large supply for the market

Previously, agarwood was a typical product of South Asian countries. After then, only Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Myanmar had agarwood approximately ten years ago. Unfortunately, the output of agarwood in these countries has recently decreased significantly because mining resources are nearly depleted. Prior to 1991, Vietnam exported 10 to 15 million dollars worth of agarwood each year. Although highly valued for its quality, Vietnamese agarwood is exclusively shipped in raw form or as fine art furniture, hence its value is low.

The global demand for agarwood is from 250 to 350 tons per year, and this amount is steadily rising. However, due to raw material shortages, the global supply and demand for this high-end product remains unbalanced.

Other than agarwood pieces, agarwood essential oil, agarwood powder, and agarwood incense, agarwood is used to make a variety of fine art products, including bracelets, necklaces, and other souvenirs. Agarwood pieces are used for a variety of purposes; for example, overseas buyers purchase agarwood pieces in bulk to extract essential oils, then utilize the residual powder to produce high-end incense. Essential oil is the most precious of the agarwood products. Many people also use agarwood pieces created from biological products to drink alcohol for good health or burn directly for incense in the office, reception area, and during festivals to replace the aroma of perfume, creating a serious environment and allowing guests to feel comfortable.
