The event was organized by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade in Sichuan (CCPIT Sichuan) on the online communication and collaboration platform Dingtalk.

It gathered various manufacturers from China, Vietnam, Canada, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Uzbekistan and more.

 The participating Vietnamese companies were looking for materials, equipment and machines for production of medical supplies for the disease’s prevention and control.

 About 40 deals were signed between the Vietnamese and Chinese firms during the event.

 The VIETRADE is cooperating with relevant organizations to schedule more online trade fairs with China in a wide range of areas in the coming time.
