As many as 320 kiosks selling various types of commodities are taking part in a spring fair that opened on January 16 in the central city of Da Nang.
 
The products, which include foodstuff, leather, apparel, handicrafts, electronics, flowers and bonsai among others, come from 150 domestic manufacturers and companies from Thailand and Cambodia.

The fair creates room for the producers to exchange experience, seek partners and expand markets, said an official from the provincial Department of Industry and Trade which is hosting the activity.

The week-long event also helps promote the campaign Vietnamese prioritise using Vietnamese products.
The involved businesses were asked to showcase high-quality products at reasonable prices in a hope to encourage locals to purchase goods ahead of the Tet holiday.

On the sidelines of the fair, local authorities held talks with their counterparts from Thailand’s Khon Kean province and signed letter of intent to establish cooperative relations between them.-VNA
