HortEx Vietnam Ho Chi Minh City

HortEx Vietnam, a specialized trade fair and conference focusing on horticulture, floriculture, and processing technologies, was established in 2018. It has quickly evolved into a significant event in this sector in Vietnam. The name "HortEx," short for "Horticulture Exposition," emphasizes its focus on horticulture and plant cultivation..

This annual fair takes place at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center (SECC) in Ho Chi Minh City, one of Vietnam's most vibrant cities. Typically held in the spring months, it offers participants an ideal opportunity to explore current trends and technologies at the outset of the gardening year.

The organization of the fair is managed by Nova Exhibitions B.V. in cooperation with Minh Vi Exhibition & Advertisement Services Co., Ltd (VEAS). Both contribute their extensive experience in organizing international fairs to create a platform for business development and networking in the horticulture and floriculture industries.
