Trade events: Highest quality – Most timely – Most effective
HawaExpo is a well-planned international furniture and interior design trade fair in Vietnam. Over 801 businesses participating in HawaExpo are made-in-Vietnam enterprises, carefully selected from two main groups. Firstly, top-performing export-oriented companies that can meet diverse needs and scale requirements. Secondly, companies possessing impressive design and creativity, creating tangible milestones in their development and understanding of the consumer market. Simultaneously, these businesses must demonstrate a sustainable development mindset and commitment to global consumer trends. Here, representatives from various sectors including interior and exterior design for living spaces, tourism, entertainment, and services, Vietnamese handicrafts, souvenirs and gifts, auxiliary materials, transportation, supply chain connections, and a variety of other related services are all present.
Therefore, participating in the HawaExpo exhibition not only demonstrates prestige and enhances trade efficiency but also provides opportunities for businesses to find quality partners from the domestic market. All of this, under the management of a highly experienced organizing committee, makes HawaExpo a source of pride for the industry, benefiting Vietnamese businesses and creating a contemporary picture of the nation's production, innovation, and supply capabilities, reaching the 6th position in the national wood market export map, constantly innovating year after year.
Furthermore, updating the product catalog, the list of local exhibitors, and the national capabilities annually is a necessary step, contributing to removing the label of "processing factory," positioning the shift from OEM to ODM, and strategically supporting the improvement of made-in-Vietnam brand value in the export sector. As Vietnam's representative in the Asian furniture and interior design trade fair series, HawaExpo's distinctiveness symbolizes the nation's unique strengths compared to the region, avoiding blending into the "mixed bag" of national exhibitions, thus building trust and confidence among international partners for long-term cooperation.
A high-class trading space, aimed at comprehensively developing the entire industry.
Focusing on the physical experience to enhance networking effectiveness, the HawaExpo organizers always aim to create an exhibition space that balances science and art. Through this, buyers and exhibitors can easily connect and exchange information in specially designed areas resembling indoor lifestyle cafes. In addition, a series of on-site networking activities such as B2B matching and after-hours events, all of 5-star quality, will provide opportunities to achieve successful deals in both quantity and quality.
Furthermore, with its focus on being a trend-setting destination showcasing the latest made-in-Vietnam production capabilities, products, technologies, and designs, the exhibition also aims to inspire creativity in the younger generation and foster innovative thinking among exhibitors. Within the framework of the event, there will be numerous large-scale showcases featuring modern production lines and sophisticated booths from traditional craft workshops. Simultaneously, a variety of engaging workshops led by experienced artisans, along with specialized production seminars and talk shows introducing new technologies, will help international visitors accurately assess Vietnam's current stature.
HawaExpo proactively organizes workshops, forums, and skills training classes within the framework of the fair to help partner organizations improve their weaknesses and update to the latest requirements from key export markets. The series of programs promoting the beauty of the handicraft industry is also a highlight, demonstrating its mission to support the unique traditional values of the country.
The International Furniture and Wood Fair is sponsored by the government and relevant agencies.
Besides the exhibition's content orientation, the sponsorship from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Industry and Trade, and the cooperation of five associations—VIFOREST, HAWA, BIFA, DOWA, and FPA—further clarifies HawaExpo's national representative stature. Furthermore, to gain the support of the aforementioned government agencies, HawaExpo is committed to transparency, professionalism, sustainability, and understanding in its organization. As a result, this trade platform has built trust with international partners and national entities, fostering long-term collaboration and development.
With serious and comprehensive investment in everything from promotional methods to organizational style, HawaExpo 2025 promises to continue the success of HawaExpo 2024, contributing to creating real value in connecting supply and demand effectively, enhancing the image of Vietnamese furniture brands, and portraying the most up-to-date overall picture of the capabilities of the world's 6th largest furniture exporter, both in breadth and depth.
