Vietnam chosen as honourable guest at Accenta 2014

The fair which has been held annually over the past 68 years is considered the biggest trade event in Europe, under the auspices of the Belgium Royal Government. This year’s event attracted more than 300 companies from all over the world.

Governor of East Flanders Jaw Briers said East Flanders has established long-lasting links with Can Tho City. Its participation in the 69th Accenta Trade Fair will help further boost economical and cultural cooperation between the two localities.

Minister Counsellor to Belgium Vu Ba Phu said the organising board will set aside 1,000sq.m of display for Vietnamese businesses, providing an excellent opportunity for Mekong Delta provinces and Can Tho in particular, to promote their products to the international market.

Around 100,000 guests are attending this year’s Accenta fair which runs from September 14 to 22, and Nepal is the honourable guest of the event.
