Vietnam to attend Seafood Expo North America 2022
More than 10 major Vietnamese enterprises are set to attend the 2022 Seafood Expo North America, formerly known as the Boston Seafood Show, in the United States in March.
As the biggest trade promotion event in North America, the expo will attract the participation of various distributors, retailers, and catering service providers, along with both processing and shipbuilding companies.
On display will be frozen, fresh, and processed seafood, as well as an array of modern processing equipment, and cutting edge processing technologies.
Major Vietnamese businesses such as Vinh Hoan Corporation, Minh Phu Seafood Corporation, EasternSea Seafood Co., Ltd, and Can Tho Import Export Seafood JSC that have engaged in seafood export for years will participate in the event.
According to the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP), the demand for food and seafood will increase in the year ahead as the hospitality and tourism services are recovering.
The VASEP also requested that the Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency (VIETRADE) continue supporting local seafood export enterprises to fully participate in similar events.
The expo is expected to create a golden opportunity for Vietnamese seafood to break into the US, a market where demand for seafood products is growing exponentially.
Organisers will stage panel discussions for businesses to share information and examine topics on Aquaculture, Corporate Social Responsibility, Traceability & Transparency, Plastics & Climate Change as it relates to seafood, and the Impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global seafood trade.
