VIFA EXPO 2023 to host more than 600 local and foreign firms

Following the success of the 2022 incarnation, and with the cooperation of hundreds of local and foreign businesses, VIFA EXPO is in its 14th year and will feature many practical activities to help exhibitors expand export markets and connect with new partners at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Centre (SECC) in District 7, Ho Chi Minh City.

The SECC will feature almost 2,500 booths over a total area of 40,000 square metres, and will play host to major enterprises such as Kettle Interiors Asia, Woodnet, Livax Vietnam, Eurofar International B.V, Eurowood Vietnam, Casarredo, Santana Furniture, MFC Group, and hundreds of other Vietnamese and foreign enterprises.

Exhibitors from Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, the UK, the US, and many more, have registered to take part.

New products in a variety of designs will be showcased, from wooden and outdoor furniture to interior décor and handicrafts, gifts, and accessories, among others, in a grand and well-organised display space that will appeal to international buyers.

Lien Minh has received registrations from more than 4,000 potential international buyers and has been actively promoting VIFA EXPO worldwide since October, focusing on potential new markets.

Activities at the exhibition aim to not only bring practical benefits to participating businesses, but also create opportunities for international buyers to quickly and easily find potential partners.

High on the agenda will be seminars touching on global shifts such as import-export trends in the world market, e-commerce, and sustainability. There will also be opportunities to help firms approach other exhibitors and international buyers directly to organise factory visits.

Lien Minh has recently launched the official VIFA EXPO Online Platform, with a host of integrated utilities. The platform enables users to quickly search for information about exhibitors, their products, the schedule of events, and will feature photos and videos from the seminars. The platform aims to offer an exciting and unique experience to exhibitors and customers alike.

By hosting the exhibition in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s economic hub, VIFA EXPO 2023 aims to be a gathering point for producers of wooden furniture, handicrafts, interior décor, and support services that meet the needs of buyers from all over the world.

As a measure of the success of VIFA EXPO over the past 14 years, and the trust secured from Vietnamese and foreign businesses, Lien Minh will also host VIFA ASEAN 2023 in August. This will be a new fair held exclusively for businesses in Southeast Asia and will bring together furniture and handicrafts typical of the region.
