The diverse range of activities generated positive results and attracted large numbers of agencies, collectives, businesses, and locals.
Over four days, the fair attracted more than 15,000 visits for shopping, commercial transactions, and business networking. More than 2,000 commercial transactions took place, and 60 meetings were organized for companies from the two countries, exceeding the target by 30 meetings. Cambodian businesses showed particular interest in Vietnamese construction materials and equipment, agricultural products, consumer goods, chemicals, fertilizers, high-tech agricultural products, and garments.
Companies under the Military Industry-Telecoms Group (Viettel) held seminars on customer experience, cash flow digitization, and business protection in the AI era, attracting considerable interest from Cambodian businesses. Through the fair, Tra Vinh Farm, Hoang Hiep Coffee, and Minh Khang Company found distributors for products made from coconut blossom nectar, coffee, and construction materials, respectively.
As part of Videx Cambodia 2026, a business-matching program brought together representatives of 25 Vietnamese companies and nine Cambodian companies from the Cambodia Small and Medium Enterprise Association. Representatives from the two countries signed memorandums of understanding to promote trade and strengthen cooperation in areas of mutual interest.
The organizing panel also arranged visits for participating businesses to the Viet Nam Trade Office in Cambodia to learn about trade policies and the opportunities and challenges of promoting trade in the Cambodian market.
