Conference seeks ways to promote Vietnam – Cambodia trade
HCM City (VNA) - Nearly 300 Vietnamese and Cambodian enterprises gathered in Ho Chi Minh City on July 15 for the Vietnam–Cambodia business connectivity conference to enhance bilateral trade and investment cooperation.
The event brought together businesses across such key sectors as agriculture, aquaculture, food processing, textiles, packaging, cosmetics, consumer goods, machinery, banking, real estate, and logistics. It featured direct business networking, exhibitions, and service showcases.
There was an exhibition area with 25 booths displaying key export products and competitive advantages from both countries, drawing significant interest from importers, distributors, and retailers.
Enterprises held that the conference provided invaluable opportunities for brand promotion, market trend analysis, technical requirement assessment, and consumer preference insights, enabling more effective market access strategies. For Cambodian enterprises, the event offered crucial insights into Vietnam's production capabilities and development potential, contributing to supply chain diversification and enhanced value creation.
Deputy Director of the Vietnamese Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT)’s Department of Foreign Market Development Do Quoc Hung highlighted that amidst regional and global volatility, strengthening business community connections plays an essential role in maintaining stable supply chains, capitalising on existing trade agreements, and supporting enterprises from both countries in enhancing their competitive edge.
The conference was expected to deliver on the sustainable two-way trade growth target while laying a foundation for building a more modern, efficient, and balanced trade cooperation ecosystem between the two economies.
Meanwhile, Chairman of the Vietnam – Cambodia Business Association (VCBA) Oknha Leng Rity noted that Cambodian enterprises are increasingly interested in accessing Vietnamese goods, technology, and management models, particularly in high-tech agriculture, food processing, consumer products, and logistics services.
He expressed his hope that the two sides will maintain and expand regular trade promotion activities while establishing flexible cooperation mechanisms between business associations to remove bottlenecks in a timely manner, share market information, and support enterprises’ sustainable development amidst deep regional integration.
On this occasion, the Cambodia Chamber of Commerce and the VCBA signed a Memorandum of Understanding, establishing close coordination mechanisms to promote market information sharing and implement joint promotional programs in the coming period.
According to the MoIT, the value of trade between Vietnam and Cambodia reached 6.2 billion USD in the first six months of 2025, a year-on-year increase of 16.8%. Vietnam's exports to Cambodia totaled 2.7 billion USD, up 4.6% from the same period last year./.
