Russia is a traditional and promising market with rising demand for agricultural imports from Asia. Against the backdrop of the growing comprehensive strategic partnership between Vietnam and Russia, the promotion and export of Vietnam’s agricultural products not only diversify supply sources for the Russian market but also help enhance the brand values and competitiveness of Vietnamese enterprises in the market that remains untapped.
Speaking at the opening of the Vietnamese pavilion, Hoang Minh Chien, Deputy Director of the Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency under the Ministry of Industry and Trade, highlighted the large and diverse Vietnamese presence at the exhibition as a demonstration of businesses' resolve to promote their brands, affirm competitiveness, and integrate further into global supply chains.
He expressed his hope that Vietnamese and Russian enterprises will translate cooperation opportunities into concrete projects and contracts to help elevate economic and trade ties to a new level, adding that the ministry stands ready to provide full support.
For his part, WorldFood Moscow 2025 Director Aleksander Ezhov stressed the long-standing bonds between Russia and Vietnam and welcomed the growing presence of Vietnamese firms, which he said reflects their increasing interest in the Russian market. He voiced his confidence that bilateral economic and trade cooperation will continue to develop in the coming time.
Vietnamese business representatives also expressed optimism about the potential for farm produce from Vietnam to further enter this market. Mai Thi Y Nhi, CEO of My Phuong Food in Da Nang, noted Russia’s steady demand for tropical products – an advantage of Vietnam.
Meanwhile, Nguyen Dac Minh, Chairman of Minh Trung Vietnam Group, emphasized that Vietnam’s participation in such large-scale exhibitions showcases the country’s progress and international integration, proving the capability of its enterprises at global trade forums.
WorldFood Moscow 2025 will run until September 19. With advantages in quality, diversity, and growing competitiveness, Vietnamese agricultural products are expected to win greater favor among Russian consumers, thereby further strengthening bilateral trade ties and affirming Vietnam’s role as a reliable supplier in the global agricultural market.
