Representatives from the organising board said the construction material sector faces many difficulties in 2019, as many foreign companies will be able to export their goods to Vietnam under free trade agreements to which Vietnam is a member.

Therefore, domestic companies are striving to enhance their competitiveness and improve product quality in order to compete with their foreign counterparts.

Following the success of the previous events, Vietbuild Hanoi 2019 provides a venue for businesses to display their latest products in the fields of construction, building materials, real estate, and interior and exterior decoration.

Last year’s expo attracted 1,500 booths run by nearly 400 domestic and foreign companies.
