“…Since uncertainty is resolved after entry, many firms enter a destination and then exit after learning that they cannot profit [71]. It is expected for exporting firms and countries to continue in their fruition by growing demand in an existing market and creating it in new destinations [72]. When the economic value of coconut as an industrial tree has been proved to both global and domestic markets, coconut production in Vietnam has grown steadily after the year 2000 upon its latest dramatic decrease in that same year [45].…”

Vietnam, an emerging economy, leads the Southeast Asian region in terms of the growth rate of coconut production; yet, its sustainability is questionable because Vietnam lacks a credible strategy to reap the benefits of its export potential. While the literature is rich with studies on coconut-related export competitiveness and readiness, it seems that studies focused on a single set of factors, and very few studies take Vietnam as a case study for analysis. Studies we found use aggregate data for econometric analysis. On the contrary, this study attempts to address the literature’s gaps by proposing a comprehensive view of key factors identifying the export potential of bottled coconut water. It also adds to our comprehension of how large- and small-scale manufacturers prioritize factors differently. To answer the research questions, we collect qualitative and quantitative data for analysis. We use AHP and M-CRITIC-RP methods for ranking the factors. This study also incorporates the criteria weights into the gravity of the trade model to identify export potential to target markets. Our findings can draw researchers’ and policymakers’ attention to the importance of considering how firms and manufacturers prioritize key factors in export readiness, and thereby impact export potential and target markets.

“…Some of these studies focused on exports and technology imports without concentrating on manufacturing industry imports and exports and examined the impact of technology imports on the manufacturing industry (Rjiesh, 2018). In addition, the effects of manufactured input imports on production were also examined (De Souza & Gómez-Ramírez, 2018). Furthermore, there are a limited number of country-based studies.…”

The manufacturing industry plays a key role in ensuring long-term and sustainable economic development. Although the impact of the service and information technology sectors on economic growth has increased recently, reindustrialization trends have appeared especially in developing and underdeveloped countries. Studies on the manufacturing industry have started to gain importance again within the scope of reindustrialization. In this context, the production functions of the manufacturing industry started to be recalculated and the factors affecting the manufacturing industry became the field of study again. In particular, global trade has become one of the dominant issues in terms of the manufacturing industry. This study aims to calculate the manufacturing industry production function of 40 countries for the period of 2000-2014. While making this calculation, it is aimed to see the effect of trade openness and human capital on manufacturing industry production. For this purpose, multidimensional panel data analysis was used and the Cobb-Douglas production function was calculated. As a result of the analysis, it has been found that labor, exchange rate, trade openness, and human capital have a positive effect on manufacturing industry production.

“…On the contrary, the higher the openness to trade in the countries with low income, the lower the financial development since they tend to import a lot of financially intensive goods, which obstruct the development of their financial system (Do and Levochenko 2004). Also, many developing nations have adopted trade liberalisation policies (Arestis and Baltar 2019; de Souza and Gomez-Ramírez 2018; Fu 2020; Gold et al 2019; Gold et al 2020; Olasehinde-Williams and Balcilar 2020). Therefore, countries with well-improved institutional quality tend to trade more and grow faster (Dollar and Kraay 2003).…”

This article examines the impact of institutional quality on bilateral trade flow between Malaysia and selected 25 African Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) member countries. Four institutional qualities were selected from World Governance Indicators with other trade predictors from the period from 1985 to 2016. Using gravity model of trade and Poisson pseudo-maximum likelihood estimation method (PPML) technique, the results confirm that government effectiveness, regulatory quality and political stability have an adverse effect on bilateral trade flow among the OIC countries in Africa. On the other hand, these institutional quality variables were considered as a strength for Malaysian economic growth. Therefore, better institutional quality reforms are needed among OIC member countries in Africa in order to accelerate trade, economic growth and development in their region.
