A Mekong Delta trade, tourism and investment fair opened in Xuan To industrial zone, Tinh Bien district, in An Giang province on May 9.


The event aims to create favourable conditions for businesses to introduce new products and trade names to consumers in border districts between Vietnam and Cambodia.

There are 400 stalls, including 40 from An Giang province, 25 from Mekong Delta provinces, 265 from the southeastern region and Ho Chi Minh City, and 20 from Cambodian businesses.

The fair is divided into nine areas: one for socio-economic and cultural exhibits of An Giang province; one for specific products from the Mekong Delta; one for seacooking and processed food; one for machines, interior decoration and building material; one for agricultural products; one for commercial services; one for products of traditional craft villages; one for food; and one for products from Cambodian businesses.

The event, which will last until May 14, is expected to increase import-export turnover through the Tinh Bien (An Giang)-Takeo (Cambodia) international border gate.
