The reception was one of the activities in the framework of the visit by the Vice Minister for Foreign Trade in Netherlands, Marten van den Berg, and the 35 companies to Vietnam on October 24-25. The visit is an opportunity for the companies to find business connections in Vietnam.
“Vietnam is at an important moment, about to move forward. It is important to be here right now and seize the abundant cooperation opportunities,” said van den Berg in his opening speech.
The Netherlands is Vietnam’s second-largest EU trade partner and cumulatively the largest EU investor in Vietnam (2015). Last year, Vietnamese companies imported $691 million worth of goods and services from the Netherlands and exported a total value of $4.7 billion.
