As the first event of this kind, it is organised by the Handicraft and Wood Industry Association of Ho Chi Minh City (HAWA) in collaboration with the Saigon Association of Construction & Building Materials (SACA).
Head of the organisating board Nguyen Quoc Khanh said the expo is held in anticipation of the wave of recovery and growth, bringing business opportunities and closely connecting the supply chain of the furniture and construction industry.
VIBE 2024 offers a venue for exhibitors to spread values and connect with business partners; provide information and trends; expand connectivity within the ecosystem of furniture and construction sector; and promote domestic business opportunities and export orientation, he stressed.
According to Khanh, VIBE 2024 features 500 pavilions from 150 leading exhibitors operating in the fields of interior decoration, construction and technology such as Nippon, Takara Standard, and Vicostone.
Organisers also approached more than 7,000 architects and interior designers from architectural offices, studios and associations.
VIBE 2024 applies the business to business to consumer (B2B2C) exhibition platform, in which businesses, through the community of architects, interior designers, contractors, and professionals, directly provide services and products to end consumers. It is expected to become the most comprehensive exhibition platform, gathering important links in the construction and interior supply chain.
Bui Quang Hung, deputy director of the Trade Promotion Agency under the Ministry of Industry and Trade, said in the context of a volatile and challenging world market, VIBE 2024 promptly meets market demands and orients businesses towards exploiting the domestic market in parallel with foreign ones.
