Last night (November 3rd), Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính attended and delivered a speech at the closing ceremony of the First Autumn Fair 2025, held at the Vietnam Exhibition Center (Dong Anh District, Hanoi). This marks the largest-scale fair ever organized in Vietnam.
The First Autumn Fair 2025 was chaired by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the People’s Committee of Hanoi, and other relevant ministries, agencies, and localities, as directed by the Prime Minister.
This fair is the largest ever held in Vietnam, spanning a total area of 130,000 m², featuring 3,000 standard booths, and attracting 2,500 domestic and international businesses and organizations.

According to the Organizing Committee, the Autumn Fair (opened on October 25th) attracted an average of 100,000 visitors per day, the highest among domestic trade promotion events. The scale and visitor numbers far exceeded previous fairs, showcasing the strong appeal of Vietnamese products and consumer confidence in domestic goods.
The latest report from the Ministry of Industry and Trade on the First Autumn Fair 2025 highlights vibrant trading activities, with an average revenue of 300 million VND per standard booth over 10 days. The total direct revenue from the fair reached nearly 1 trillion VND, with local booths contributing 50 billion VND.
Additionally, the total value of transactions, contracts, and memoranda of understanding (MoUs) reached nearly 5 trillion VND, with local booths accounting for nearly 500 billion VND. Thus, the total revenue and value generated by the fair over 10 days amounted to nearly 6 trillion VND. According to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, these results demonstrate that the fair served not only as a product showcase but also as a “real trading floor,” helping businesses find partners, expand supply chains, and develop export markets.
Notably, the Organizing Committee hosted 11 conferences, seminars, and specialized forums during the fair, recognized 30 outstanding booths, and organized continuous international trade programs with businesses from Japan, South Korea, China, Singapore, New Zealand, and the European Union. Over 100 cooperation agreements and MoUs were signed.
