Trade fair offers many opportunities in Cambodia
An investment, tourism and trade fair is currently underway at the Tinh Bien International Border Gate in the Mekong delta province of An Giang, attracting a large number of Cambodian businesses.
While attending the fair opening on May 14, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Thanh Bien said that he expected the fair, along with a number of trade promotions, will help Vietnamese businesses to increase their market share in Cambodia.
He also hoped that the event will assist businesses in the Mekong delta to connect with neighbouring areas, especially Ho Chi Minh City, to stimulate the region’s development.
More than 200 Vietnamese and Cambodian businesses are exhibiting their products in 500 pavilions, with goods ranging from farm products, seafoods, machinery, chemicals, construction materials and consumer items to furniture and handicrafts.
The businesses taking part in the fair, which runs till May 19, come not only from the Mekong delta, but also from the Central Highlands and Ho Chi Minh City.
Home to several international and national border crossings, An Giang is a gateway for farmers from the Mekong delta to reach other markets in the region and promises to become a busy trade zone in the future.
