Elsewhere, the Southeast Asian region made up of Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia held a 25.24% share of worldwide demand for instant noodles.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the rate of domestic instant noodle consumption increasing by 67%, according to a recent survey conducted by Nielsen Vietnam Co. Ltd.
