HA NOI (Biz Hub) — A fair featuring some of Viet Nam's finest products has opened in Central World, Bangkok's largest shopping centre.

Organised by Thai Central Group in conjunction with Viet Nam's Ministry of Industry and Trade, the week-long showcase includes products from leading Vietnamese enterprises such as Binh Phu Furniture Company, fine porcelain and chinaware producer Minh Long, Vietnamese brewery Sai Gon Beer and Dien Quang Electrical, as well as textile company Hoa Tho; food producers Bich Chi, Hoan Chau and Tan Hue Vien; Tam Lan tea company; and Highland Coffee.

"This is a tremendous opportunity for us to take Viet Nam's culture and products to the people of Thailand and underscores our company-wide commitment to increase opportunities for Vietnamese companies to increase their market share beyond their borders thanks to our network of stores and companies around the world," Central Group spokesperson Sudhitham Chirathivat said. 

"This will be the first time the Viet Nam Fair has ventured to Thailand and the twelfth staging of the event overall, having showcased the nation in numerous other countries in the past," Viet Nam's Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Ho Thi Kim Thoa said.

"We look forward to partnering with Central Group more often in the future for such exhibitions around the world," she added. — VNS
