The Vietnamese pavilion has an “organic and natural village” with organic products like desiccated fruits, rice, processed coconut and milk, alongside products with geographical indication like Phu Quoc fish sauce, Binh Thuan dragon fruits, Binh Phuoc cashew nuts, Ben Tre Xiem coconuts and grapefruits and natural products like Dong Thap lotus on display.

The Vietnamese delegation will run networking programmes between Vietnamese and ASEAN firms. There will be also a seminar with Vietnamese and foreign speakers discussing the potential of the ASEAN market and sharing their experience in developing and commercialising products with geographical indication.

Organised by Koelnmesse Pte Ltd, Thailand’s Department of International Trade Promotion and the Thai Chamber of Commerce, Thaifex is set to draw more than 2,500 exhibitors from some 40 countries and territories.

The fair can help connect visitors with exhibitors, thus improving competitiveness of firms for their operation in the global market.
