Update: Jul 21, 2016
A four-day Ha Noi Gift Show will be held from October 16 to 19 at the National Planning Exhibition Centre in the capital.

With over 600 booths, the upcoming event will include exhibitors from Viet Nam and other countries in the region. This event will showcase products like home decor and handicraft products, indoor and outdoor furniture, home textiles and embroidery, gifts and ethnic items, personal accessories, toys and more.

The event's organisers described the event as a good opportunity for handicraft producers and traders from across the country to advertise and promote their products, seek new customers, expand their export markets, and take advantage of the free trade agreements that Viet Nam has signed.

A total of 1,285 memoranda of understanding (MoU) and contracts were signed at the previous show. Of that figure, 865 contracts worth 150 million USD were reached with foreign importers. Total retail sales of goods at the show exceeded 10 billion VND (450,000 USD).
