Vietnamese firms eye new opportunities with Nordic partners

A Nordic delegation to Vietnam International Sourcing 2025 in September will feature leading names in retail, consumer goods, logistics, and sustainable manufacturing, including global fashion giant H&M, offering fresh prospects for partnerships in fashion, textiles, and green supply chains.

Vietnamese businesses are well-positioned to seize opportunities to expand collaboration with Nordic enterprises, as the Vietnam Trade Office in Sweden continues to support delegations from Northern Europe to Vietnam International Sourcing 2025.

This year’s Nordic delegation will feature leading names in retail, consumer goods, logistics, and sustainable manufacturing, including global fashion giant H&M, offering fresh prospects for partnerships in fashion, textiles, and green supply chains.

In 2023 and 2024, similar missions included companies such as IKEA, Gothenburg Port, F&H, and Scanesia, resulting in several cooperation agreements with Vietnamese firms.

Vietnam International Sourcing 2025 will return to the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Centre (SECC) in September, featuring over 500 exhibiting firms and around 300 international buyer delegations. Key sectors include food and beverages, consumer goods, furniture, fashion, raw materials, and supporting industries.

Alongside the exhibition, the event will host specialised seminars, B2B networking, factory tours, and industrial zone visits. Topics will focus on European export standards, green transition, logistics, and global branding strategies.

The event is expected to serve not only as a marketplace, but also as a forum for knowledge exchange and effective partnerships, further reinforcing Vietnam’s integration into the international supply chain./.
