(seafood.vasep.com.vn) With less than three weeks remaining, the Vietnam Fisheries International Exhibition – Vietfish 2026 will officially take place from August 19–21, 2026, at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center (SECC) in Ho Chi Minh City. Under the theme "Innovation – Sustainability," Vietfish 2026 will provide a comprehensive networking platform for seafood businesses, buyers, distributors, industry experts, government agencies, and domestic and international visitors.
As Vietnam's premier annual seafood trade promotion event, Vietfish is more than an exhibition showcasing seafood products, technologies, and services across the supply chain. It is also a key meeting point for businesses to expand partnerships, stay abreast of industry trends, and explore new growth opportunities. At a time when the global seafood market continues to evolve rapidly—with increasing emphasis on quality, traceability, certification standards, sustainability, and technological innovation—Vietfish 2026 is expected to serve as a practical forum where businesses can gain valuable market insights and strengthen commercial connections.
One of the highlights of Vietfish 2026 is its B2B networking program, featuring both the Domestic Seafood Supply–Demand Matching Program and the Hosted Buyer Program for international buyers. These initiatives will provide Vietnamese seafood companies with valuable opportunities to meet directly with retailers, distributors, buyers, and business partners from Vietnam and abroad, showcase their products, discuss market needs, explore business opportunities, and expand distribution channels.
Complementing the trade activities, Vietfish 2026 will host five specialized industry conferences covering topics of particular interest to the seafood business community. Key themes include global seafood market trends, developing the industry's future workforce, green technologies for aquaculture and processing, updates on GSA/BAP standards, regulatory developments in key export markets, and trade cooperation opportunities between Vietnam and China. Designed to deliver up-to-date information, expert perspectives, and practical recommendations, these conferences aim to help businesses strengthen their competitiveness in an increasingly demanding marketplace.
Visitors can also enjoy the vibrant Cooking Show at Hall B1, which will create an engaging culinary experience throughout the three-day exhibition. Live cooking demonstrations, product presentations, tasting sessions, interactive games, and audience activities will showcase the flavors, nutritional value, and versatility of Vietnamese seafood. The program will also help bring Vietnamese seafood products closer to consumers, distributors, and international partners.
Beyond the exhibition itself, Vietfish 2026 will foster stronger relationships within the seafood community through a range of side events, including the VASEP Cup 2026. By combining business networking, professional conferences, product experiences, and community activities, the exhibition aims to deliver a vibrant, practical, and highly connected event for the industry.
With its diverse lineup of activities, Vietfish 2026 offers Vietnamese seafood enterprises an excellent opportunity to showcase their capabilities, stay informed about market developments, expand business partnerships, and reinforce the industry's position in the global seafood supply chain. Seafood businesses, buyers, distributors, and industry stakeholders are encouraged to register early to plan their meetings, networking activities, and exhibition experience.
