The inaugural Vietnam International Trade Fair for Apparel, Textiles, and Textile Technologies (VIATT) concluded successfully on 1 March 2024. The three-day event, supported by TEXPROCIL, attracted 17,262 visitors from 55 countries and regions. A total of 409 exhibitors from 17 countries showcased products spanning the entire textile value chain.
Vietnam’s rapidly growing garment manufacturing sector has made it a key player in the global textile market, complementing China. Favorable trade conditions allow for tax-free or reduced-tax exports to Europe and the UK, further boosting Vietnam's role as a textile hub. Exhibitors met with buyers from the US, Europe, and Asia, including representatives from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Thai brands.
Looking ahead, VIATT 2025 will take place from 26 to 28 February at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center in Ho Chi Minh City. The fair is expected to draw over 500 exhibitors and 20,000 visitors, with a 15,000 square meter exhibit space. The event will showcase a wide range of textile products and technologies, facilitating trade across Southeast Asia and beyond.
