Speaking at a networking event held as part of the fair, Renzo Armuzzi, a representative of the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, wished to invite Vietnamese ministries and businesses to visit high-tech agricultural models of the Emilia-Romagna region to explore cooperation opportunities in farm produce processing, storage and transportation.
President of Macfrut Renzo Piraccini applauded Vietnam’s continuous attendance at the fair and expressed his willingness to support so that localities and businesses of both sides can connect with one another and seek partnership opportunities.
The fair drew the participation of more than 1,400 exhibitors, of which 40% came from abroad, making Macfrut 2024 the largest international agrifood fair in the European country. It also featured many panel discussions on development trends in the agricultural sector and new innovations.
