Vietnam, Turkey hold B2B matching webinar for supporting industries
Hanoi (VNA) - Vietnam and Turkey held the “Business-to-Business
(B2B) Matching Webinar on Products for Supporting Industries 2021” on April 9, aiming
to introduce the potential of Vietnamese electronics and mechanics manufacturers
to major Turkish importers.
The event was organised by the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s Vietnam
Trade Promotion Agency (Vietrade) and Asia-African Market Department, as well
as the Embassy of Vietnam in Turkey.
Among attendees were representatives from Arcelik A.S, a Turkish
multinational household appliance manufacturer that is looking to stay ahead in
the Asia-Pacific market.
In her opening remarks, Deputy Director of Vietrade’s export support
centre Nguyen Thi Thu Thuy highlighted population and workforce as potential of Vietnam, a dynamic economy in Asia.
Besides, the country has been active in fostering international economic integration, she
noted, citing the fact that Vietnam has participated in a number of
new-generation free trade agreements and worked to diversify foreign markets
and export items.
The country is becoming “the world’s factory” and playing an increasingly
important role in global supply chains.
As Vietnam has competitive edges in skilled workers, affordable labour
costs, and modern technology in supporting industries, it is capable of fulling
orders for high-quality products, even large volumes, and ensuring delivery is
on schedule, she continued. The country produces more and more high-tech
products with higher added value, for example precision mechanical and
electronic products and parts.
She added that Vietrade will help enterprises from Vietnam and Turkey
connect with each other to boost trade and economic relations between the two
sides./.
