Vietnam is seeking to increase its presence in the global Halal food supply chain to capitalize on growing international demand. To achieve this, domestic enterprises are focusing on expanding agricultural exports and addressing existing challenges related to raw materials, supply chain organization, and certification standards required by importing nations.

As part of these efforts, the Vietnam International Food Industry Exhibition (Vietnam Foodexpo 2026) is scheduled for November 11 to 14, 2026, in Ho Chi Minh City. Organized by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the event is expected to feature over 100 businesses with Halal certification, aiming to help Vietnamese products reach a global consumer base of approximately 2 billion people.
