(seafood.vasep.com.vn) From August 28 to September 5, 2025, at the National Exhibition Center (Dong Anh, Hanoi) – the largest exhibition center in Southeast Asia, the National Achievements Exhibition with the theme “80 Years of Independence – Liberty – Happiness” will officially take place. This is the most extensive political, cultural and socio-economic event ever organized, marking the 80th anniversary of Vietnam’s National Day (September 2, 1945 – September 2, 2025).

The exhibition brings together the collective strength of 28 central ministries and agencies, 34 provinces and cities, along with over 110 major enterprises and economic groups. More than 230 booths are scientifically and modernly arranged across an area of over 250,000 m², divided into 11 thematic zones. The displays highlight the achievements of nearly 180 sectors, including industry, agriculture, commerce and investment to culture, science and technology, healthcare and the environment - offering a vivid and comprehensive picture of the nation’s development over the past 80 years.

Within the framework of this significant event, the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) is honored to collaborate with the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, participating in the “Creation and Development” ecosystem at Hall 1 – Kim Quy Exhibition Hall. VASEP’s seafood pavilion features iconic products from Vietnam’s seafood enterprises, including shrimp, pangasius, tuna, marine products and dried products. These are not only Vietnam’s leading export staples that have elevated a global presence but also a reflection of the dynamic and sustainable development of the entire country’s seafood industry.

On the opening day, August 28, the “Seafood” pavilion represented by VASEP became one of the exhibition’s highlights, attracting a large number of visitors and receiving special attention from leaders of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, the Vietnam Farmers’ Union, the State Audit Office, the Vietnam Union of Science and Technology Associations (VUSTA), along with representatives from many other ministries and organizations. In addition to the diversity of key export products, standout items such as a 27kg yellowfin tuna (presented by Hai Nam Company) and three oversized pangasius broodstock (from Vinh Hoan Corporation) left a strong impression, drawing significant attention from visitors.

The display area of VASEP and seafood enterprises at the exhibition carries significant importance. It serves as an opportunity to promote the image of Vietnam’s seafood industry to a wide domestic and international audience. The showcased products are not only the result of creative labor but also demonstrate the industry’s resilience, technological innovation, commitment to environmental sustainability and the growing prestige of Vietnamese goods in global markets.

Additionally, the exhibition opens up opportunities for connection and cooperation within the seafood business community. Notably, the presence of the seafood industry in an exhibition showcasing the outstanding achievements of nearly 180 sectors further underscores its vital role and significant contributions to the national economy.

VASEP and the seafood business community are honored to participate in this nationally significant event, thereby contributing to promoting the image of Vietnamese seafood as dynamic, sustainable and globally integrated. This is undoubtedly a significant milestone, providing further motivation for seafood enterprises to continuously innovate, enhance product quality and strengthen Vietnam’s position on the global seafood map.

From the opening day on August 28 to September 2, the seafood pavilion consistently attracted heavy foot traffic as visitor numbers surged. According to the organizers, within the first six days, millions of visitors attended, reflecting the special appeal of this nationally significant event.

Notably, per the Prime Minister’s decision, the exhibition has been extended by an additional 10 days, running through September 15 (compared to the original plan of ending on September 5), to meet the growing demand for visits and experiences from the public. The exhibition is open to the public and visitors free of charge, operating continuously from 8 AM to 10 PM daily.

Entering 2026, Vietnam’s seafood industry is facing a period of both high expectations and mounting pressures.

This is a positive result amid an uneven global shrimp market recovery, intensifying competition among major suppliers, and continued volatility in the international trade environment.
