The agreement lays the basis for Vietnamese and Thai firms to work together and involve in global and regional supply chains.

Pham Thanh Kien, head of the HCM City Department of Industry and Trade, said the southern city is a potential destination for Thai products, which have gained favour with local consumers for their quality and competitive prices.

Since the beginning of 2017, seven Thai goods fairs have taken place in HCM City, with three more expected to run toward the year’s end.
