Deputy Director of the municipal Department of Industry and Trade Dam Tien Thang said that with over 650 stalls by 236 domestic and foreign firms from China, India, Laos, Nepal, Japan, Peru and South Korea, the show is expected to lure some 12,000 visitors and more than 600 importers from many countries and territories to visit and trade at the show, many of which have large purchasing power (above US$100 million per year). 

Apart from products by export firms and traditional craft villages, the event will introduce over 100 products by domestic and foreign designers, including winners of Hanoi handicraft design contest 2018, Thang added.

Remarkably, at the Hanoi Gift Show 2018, for the first time, the organizing committee conducts the “Match and Meet” program between enterprises participating in the show and foreign importers. It aims to help importers connect with businesses with appropriate products, to negotiate in advance of each party's needs and trade directly at the show, Thang stressed.

According to the organizing committee, 40 university students majoring in the English, Japanese, and French languages will also be present to help domestic firms connect with foreign buyers. 

The event will open opportunities to bring traditional handicrafts of Vietnam in general and of Hanoi in particular to international friends and promote the export and sustainable development of Hanoi's handicraft industry, the organizing committee added.
