21 localities to join Hanoi Agriculture Fair 2020

Each location will have a scale of about 80-100 booths, said the organizers. 

Deputy Director of the Hanoi Promotion Agency Nguyen Thi Mai Anh said that the fair will offer opportunities for businesses to access the distribution system to become suppliers for AEON, thus opening export potential. 

During the fair, the Hanoi Promotion Agency will organize many activities to assist businesses to access the Japanese retail system, such as: displaying, promoting and introducing products; seminars on EVFTA and organic agriculture; tea cuisine performance; and trial experience of agricultural products. 

The organizers will closely coordinate with businesses to provide transparent information about products, share programs and activities of businesses, thereby creating opportunities for organizations and enterprises of all economic sectors to improve competitiveness and boost production and business activities. 

So far, the organizers have received registration for the participation of 21 provinces and cities nationwide. 

Deputy Director of the Hanoi Promotion Center said that the organization of the fair aims to realize a memorandum of understanding between the city People’s Committee and Japan’s AEON group. Under the deal, the two sides agreed to achieve USD500 million worth of Vietnam’s export turnover through the AEON system in 2020 and USD1 billion in 2025./.
