On August 21-23, 2024, the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers - VASEP will organize the Vietnam International Seafood Exhibition 2024 (VIETFISH 2024) with many attractive activities for visitors.
The highlight of this year's exhibition is the "Tasty sampling - try delicious seafood dishes" area available throughout the event. In particular, VIETFISH 2024 is collaborating with the United States Soybean Export Council (USSEC), to combine seafood with soybeans to create delicious and nutritious dishes. Although these two ingredients might seem distinct, the skillful preparations by the chefs at VIETFISH, this demonstrate an interesting combination that enhances both flavor and nutritional value in the delicious seafood dishes.
Seafood dishes combined with US soybean products include the following:
Crispy fried tofu rolls
Scallop tofu
Tofu cocktail shrimp
Sustainable U.S. soybeans are verified through the U.S. Soy Sustainability Assurance Protocol (SSAP). SSAP verifies that U.S. soybeans are produced with environmental and social concerns under a system of regulations, processes and practices that deliver meaningful results. In addition, U.S. soybean farmers develop sustainable soy-based solutions for a growing world, contributing to preserving the planet for future generations.
The Sustainable U.S. Soy label is available for use by international companies at no cost. Soy products such as food or animal feed must contain at least 60 percent sustainable U.S. Soy.,
Companies that produce animal products that are fed sustainable U.S. Soy can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability by using the Fed with Sustainable U.S. Soy label. This label allows companies to promote products like poultry, pork, shrimp or other proteins. At least 60 percent of the soy in the feed ration must come from verified sustainable U.S. Soy.
The cooperation with Vietfish is an opportunity for USSEC to introduce the logo "Fed with Sustainable U.S. Soy" to the Vietnamese aquaculture industry to create fish, shrimp products... that meet sustainable quality standards.
(The Sustainable U.S. Soy logo is currently being applied to 1,000 products worldwide)
With the theme "Exported seafood products for Vietnamese people", VIETFISH 2024 aims to introduce convenient, nutritious seafood products that meet strict quality standards, and have been exported to more than 170 countries around the world, promising to bring domestic consumers a source of fresh, delicious, and extremely convenient food. Along with the above activities, the event also attracted attention with a series of seminars on promoting the sustainable development of the Vietnamese aquaculture industry, chaired by domestic and foreign experts.
In 2024, the Exhibition will attract nearly 300 participating units with more than 500 booths, filling Hall A and B1 of SECC Exhibition Center, Ho Chi Minh City. With strong connection potential, the event promises to bring interesting experiences to visitors and those interested in the seafood sector.
