SINGAPORE — Five Vietnamese enterprises operating in the fields of food and hospitality are attending the Food & Hotel Asia (FHA) 2024 which is taking place in Singapore from Tuesday to Friday (April 23-26).

This year’s event attracts over 1,500 businesses from more than 50 nations and territories and expects to welcome 60,000 visitors.

Vietnamese booths draw the attention of many visitors with their wide variety of products such as confectionery, beverage, frozen foods, pepper and other spice products, and canned and dried fruit.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Singaporean Minister of Trade and Industry Low Yen Ling said that FHA-F&B was an equal playground for enterprises to seek collaboration in free trade agreement networks. It also aims at internationalisation, continuous innovation and sustainable development in the field of food and hospitality.

Vietnamese Ambassador to Singapore Mai Phước Dũng emphasised that the participation of Vietnamese enterprises showed their enormous efforts in studying food and hospitality development trends in the world.

He affirmed that the event also helped promote more Vietnamese products in foreign markets.

Through the event, Vietnamese enterprises anticipate opportunities to meet potential partners, bringing more Vietnamese agricultural brands to international markets.

Michael Duck, Executive Vice President of Informa Markets, said that Việt Nam was a supplier of many important food items and the event was an occasion to expand the market further. — VNS
