The fair is anticipated to help local exporters connect with both domestic and foreign partners and importers, according to the organisers HCM City’s Department of Industry and Trade at a press conference on May 3.

A total of 450 booths of Vietnamese and foreign businesses will exhibit key export items, including food and beverages, farm produce, handicrafts, textiles and garments, footwear, rubber and plastics, and electronics.

Furthermore, local manufacturers will have the opportunity to learn about global market trends to improve their product quality to international standards, the organisers said.

The fair is expected to attract roughly 20,000 visitors, with around 80% of them being importers, traders, supermarkets, and retail chains in major markets such as the United States, Europe, Southeast Asia, China, Japan, and the Republic of Korea, along with representatives of e-commerce platforms.

The event will feature activities like an export forum focusing on green growth and a conference on global market trends and solutions to help exporters tackle problems.

Moreover, businesses will have the chance to take part in B2B matchmaking sessions to meet with potential partners and investors from around the world.
