HortEx Vietnam is the only International Exhibition and Conference for Horticultural and Floricultural Production and Processing Technology in Vietnam. It was held for the first time in 2018 by Minh Vi Exhibition and Advertisement Services Co., Ltd. (Vietnam), coorganized with Nova Exhibitions BV (Netherlands). The first edition of HortEx Vietnam attracted 110 participants from 20 countries and welcomed 4,530 trade visitors. Besides the Vietnamese visitors the exhibition welcomed a large quantity of visitors from overseas countries such as Cambodia, Thailand, Philippines, Taiwan, Korea, Australia, China, US and India.
HortEx Vietnam 2018 received great reception from joining exhibitors; 92% of the exhibitors said that HortEx Vietnam met their expectations. Based on the positive feedback and growing interest in the Vietnamese market the decision has been made to increase the exhibiting space by two fold for the next edition in order to meet the increasing demand from companies worldwide.
HortEx Vietnam aims to support the rapid growth of the Vietnam horticulture and floriculture industry. According to figures from the Vietnam Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, horticulture and floriculture production and processing is one of the most promising segments of Vietnam, a leading economy in South East Asia region.
Vietnam earned over 2 billion USD from exporting fruits and vegetables in the first half of 2018, a year-on-year rise of 19.7 percent. Horticulture and floriculture are set for a steady growth and becoming a leading export industry of Vietnam.
HortEx Vietnam, with its commitment, has received strong endorsement from Vietnam Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Lam Dong Tourism, Trade and Investment Promotion Center (TIPC), Vietnam Fruit & Vegetable Association (VinaFruit), Dalat Flower Association and the Netherlands Embassy in Vietnam. The event is highly anticipated to connect worldwide providers with local businesses and experts from related industries in Vietnam.
