HCM City (VNA) – A delegation of nearly 40 businesses from Japan’s Setouchi and Oita prefectures took part in a programme promoting food exporters’ connectivity in Ho Chi Minh City on November 24.

They marketed more than 70 local commodities, aiming to seek market shares in the southern metropolis and Vietnam at large.

Through the activity, the enterprises also wanted to seek Vietnamese partners and distributors for long-term cooperation in the food industry.

Hirotaka Yasuzumi, Chief Representative of the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO) in HCM City, said that the products introduced at the programme all have high quality, and meet Japan’s strict food hygiene and safety standards, so they can satisfy the taste of consumers in numerous countries, including Vietnam.

On the same day, a seminar was also organised in the city for Vietnamese and Japanese entrepreneurs to share experience.

Participating Vietnamese entrepreneurs also learnt about leadership training methods provided by Japan’s Matsushita University.-VNA
