He added that more than 220,000 overseas Vietnamese people who are living and working in Canada, are a firm foundation for promoting cooperation between people and businesses of the two countries.
A representative from the HCM City Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises Support Centre said the centre has helped 57 local businesses establish ties with Canadian partners. As a result, many Vietnamese firms have found Canadian supermarkets as an outlet for their products and many Canadian businesses have set up their branches in Vietnam.
Next year, the HCM City Business Association will coordinate with the Vietnamese Consulate in Canada to organise visits to Canada for Vietnam’s trade promoters and welcome Canadian business delegations to Vietnam to seek market opportunities.
