Hanoi (VNA) – The 9th Vietnam Hardware & Hand Tools Expo (VHHE) will take place in Ho Chi Minh City from December 5-7 with nearly 400 exhibitors from 15 countries and territories, showcasing more than 1,000 products.

According to the expo organiser Vinexad, in this season, VHHE has 400 booths that are displaying tools, power tools, fasteners, building hardware, and other products that have widespread application in areas like engineering, manufacturing, repairing, assembling, construction, and “do it yourself” (DIY).

In particular, the Vietnam Supporting Industry Products Exhibition (VSIF) organised by the HCM City Supporting Industry Development Centre under the city’s Department of Industry and Trade will continue to be a companion event within the framework of VHHE 2024 for the third consecutive year.

The events are expected to provide an opportunity to promote Made-in-Vietnam supporting industry products of small- and medium-sized enterprises in the city together with those winning the city’s Gold Brand Award.

Within the framework of the VHHE & VSIF 2024 exhibition series, specialised seminars on market trends and support policies will be held. Meanwhile, a business-to-business networking conference will take place throughout the 3-day expo.

The expo will also introduce an industrial park tour that aims to promote processing-technology linkages between Vietnamese mechanical enterprises and FDI enterprises in Vietnam, as well as international industrial production business delegations./.
