Over 100 international dishes introduced at Vietnam F&B Festival

As many as 50 units put their various culinary products on display at the festival, including processed food, raw materials used in food processing, as well as machinery and equipment for production and packaging.

Aside from introducing quintessential cuisine to the community, festival is to fully tap into the culinary industry’s potential, create a healthy playground for young people, and contribute to fostering the start-up eco-system whilst accelerating socio-economic development.

The Vietnam Culinary Forum 2023 is also held as a platform to discuss orientations for the development of the night-time economy and cuisine aimed at retaining international tourists. In addition, business representatives in the F&B (Food & Beverage) industry have also mapped out a strategy to promote smart tourism with a specific focus on the development of the green culinary trend.

The function aims to introduce culinary culture, craft products, regional specialties, along with the southern city’s typical dishes to the F&B community and international friends, contributing to stimulating consumption demand and reviving the local tourism sector, says Nguyen Tan Viet, chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City Culinary Association.

Nguyen Thi Anh Hoa, director of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism, says the city plans to compile a set of criteria in order to evaluate local food service establishments and focus on developing tourism products in association with the policy of developing the night-time economy in the future.
