NEW DELHI — Việt Nam was selected as partner country of the India International Hospitality Expo (IHE 2024) at the opening ceremony on Saturday in Noida, Utta Pradesh state.

As a partner country, Việt Nam has arranged a booth showcasing its products and organises a cuisine festival and masterclasses by famous Vietnamese chefs.

After the opening ceremony, the Việt Nam Trade Office in India inaugurated the Vietnam booth in the presence of Indian Minister for Tourism & Culture Gajendra Singh Shekhawat and representatives of Vietnamese and Indian businesses.

The Vietnam booth has attracted much attention and appreciation from Indian and foreign businesses.
