Pearl cultivation in Phu Quoc developed from the 1990s when Australian and Japanese techniques were introduced to utilize the island's clean seawater and favorable conditions for Pinctada oysters, establishing Phu Quoc as Vietnam's primary center for cultured pearls.

Pearl farming is a distinctive local industry and cultural identifier for Phu Quoc, contributing to the island's economy and craft tradition, with pearls considered a signature souvenir and product of the island.
