Vietnam’s oldest and most significant trading and export event for the furniture industry, VIFA EXPO – Vietnam International Furniture & Home Accessories Fair – is also a key part of the annual south-east Asia furniture exhibition series which kicks off in March.
Despite being subject to space limitations VIFA EXPO 2024 had more than 600 exhibitors from Vietnam and 17 other countries covering 36,000sqm. The event drew over 13,000 visitors, including 5,200 international buyers from 72 countries as more than 75% of exhibitors secured orders during the four-day event.
As global demand for furniture trading continues to rise, next year’s VIFA EXPO will be significantly expanded as it looks to attract a larger number of international buyers. The show is poised to be the largest furniture industry exhibition seen in Vietnam and will be about a third larger than this year.
The 16th edition of the event will be held at two of Ho Chi Minh City’s largest exhibition centres: SECC and SKY Expo Vietnam from 5-8 March.
As the first-choice furniture trade exhibition in Vietnam, VIFA EXPO 2025 has seen a significant surge in demand for space from exhibitors. Within just a few months, almost the same space the entire 2024 show occupied has been booked by more than 400 exhibitors from 19 countries. These include Koda, Woodnet, Scancom, Fine Scandinavian, MFC, PMA, Savimex, Lyprodan, Eurofar, Master Pacific, Mega Home, Wood Concept and Global Home.
A high frequency bus shuttle will operate between the two venues and from official hotels to the show. Buyers’ support packages will also be available from December.
VIFA EXPO 2025 is the second show in the series of furniture exhibitions held across south-east Asia in March, after MIFF, Malaysia (1-4 March) and EFE, Malaysia (2-4 March) and before IFEX, Indonesia (6–9 March); 3F, China (15-19 March) and CIFF, China (18 –21 and 28-31 March).
