Hanoi, Vietnam, 25 June 2018: The first Hanoi edition of HVACR Vietnam 2018 was held from April 18 to 20, 2018 at the National Exhibition Construction Center, the organisers said in a Press communiqué.

During the three-day exhibition, more than 200 global brands and companies were represented in the show and over 640 on-site meeting appointments were conducted between the exhibitors and 300 VIP buyers, the communiqué said. There was significant attendance at the multiple seminars and 75% of the exhibitors have rebooked for the 2019 show at Ho Chi Minh City, the communiqué further said.

To cater to the local market demand, the organiser, Informa Exhibitions, will rotate the exhibition between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, with Hanoi hosting it on even years, and Ho Chi Minh City hosting it on odd years, the communiqué said.

Describing their participation in the show, James Huang, General Director of Leading Electric and Machinery Vietnam, said: “This is our first time exhibiting in HVACR Vietnam, and we have managed to secure new sales leads. The exhibition is a solid platform for us to promote our company, showcase our products and meet existing clients, so we certainly wouldn’t miss the next edition.”

The communiqué said the Vietnam Green Building Council, which co-organised a series of seminars (with Informa) at the recently concluded edition of HVACR Vietnam, will also lend their support to the event next year.

Commenting on the exhibition, Jack Wei, General Manager, Informa Global Exhibitions (Asia), said: “HVACR Vietnam is an effective platform for companies looking to showcase new products, gain access to new opportunities, raise the company and brand profile, establish a market presence, meet quality buyers and seek joint venture partners. We are very pleased that HVACR Vietnam has again helped so many companies, local and international, to connect and grow their business together.

The communiqué said that HVACR Vietnam 2019 will be held from March 27 to 29, 2019, in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
