A trade fair 2010 kicked off in the northern border province ò Lang Son on March 12 in response to the “Vietnamese use Vietnamese goods” campaign.

The 200 booths, put up by businesses from 10 Vietnamế provinces and Guangxi province, China, showcase metallic and electrical products, production materials, construction materials and interior decorations, art and craft products, chemicals and cosmetics, pharmaceutical products, foods and other services. 

Co-sponsored by the Lang Son Trade Promotion Centre and VIASA Trade Fair Joinstock Company, the fair is part of activities for the Vietnam-China Friendship Year 2010 to promote trade and create opportunities for businesses to advertise their products and encourage domestic product consumption.

The fair, which will last until March 18, is also a good opportunity to strengthen economic cooperation between the two countries and ensure social security.

Lang Son province hopes the fair will provide foreign and domestic businesses access to the Lang Son market.
