As many as 250 firms will exhibit their products at the 18th Việt Nam International Trade Fair in HCM City (Việt Nam Expo 2020) taking place next month.

The expo, which opens from December 3 to 5 at Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center, will feature 350 booths.

Việt Nam Expo is hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and has been organised annually by the Việt Nam National Trade Fair & Advertising Company (Vinexad) over the last two decades. It is recognised as one of the most effective trade events, bringing about a lot of economic value for organisations, enterprises and individuals in Việt Nam and overseas.

The event will include different exhibition zones, including the International Pavilion, Hardware & Hand Tools and Gardening Technology and Landscaping Design.

The International Pavilion zone will present South Korean participants such as K-Biz, AKCS, GBSA, as well as Indonesian and Chinese enterprises.

The Hardware & Hand Tools zone displays products in the fields of tools, fasteners, building hardware and do it yourself (DIY), locks – security and work safety.

At the Gardening Technology and Landscaping Design zone, businesses exhibit products in the fields of landscape design and decoration, outdoor lighting technology, gardening and flowers, bonsai and plant care.

“Despite facing difficulties after the last flash floods, we aim for parallel goals of reconstructing a normal life and supporting enterprises in production and trade,” said Trần Phi Tường, Deputy Director of Center for Promotion of Investment, Trade and Tourism of the central province of Quảng Trị.

Quảng Trị is one of the provinces participating in Việt Nam Expo 2020 besides HCM City, Đà Nẵng, Lào Cai, Yên Bái, Hải Dương and Nghệ An.

“A lot of foreign businesses have emailed us to ask how to join this year's expo in the face of obstacles about social distancing and border restrictions amid the pandemic. As we do not want to miss the trade opportunities for the Vietnamese market, we organise remote booths for foreign businesses to participate in this event,” said Nguyễn Hồng Nhung, Project Director of Việt Nam National Trade Fair & Advertising Company (Vinexad). — VNS
