As part of the continuous effort to strengthen economic ties between Japan and Vietnam, B&Company were proud to support two reputable companies from Shiga Prefecture (Japan). Acting as the official Shiga Prefecture Vietnam Support Desk, we helped them showcase their innovations at the event, held at VINAMAC 2025 – at the Saigon Exhibition & Convention Center (SECC).

To ensure the Shiga companies had a productive experience, B&Company team offered a comprehensive support, from managing booth registration and set-up to proactively promoting and arranging direct B2B meetings with potential partners in Vietnam, along with on-site interpretation and logistics assistance.

Moreover, the standout participation of Shiga Prefecture underscores their strong commitment to building lasting partnerships in Vietnam’s dynamic and fast-growing industrial sector and expanding its footprint across Southeast Asia.

A major industrial event connecting regional and global manufacturers

The exhibition featured a comprehensive range of advanced technologies across mechanical engineering, industrial automation, metal processing, manufacturing equipment, components, and industrial materials. As one of the most dynamic industrial markets in Asia, Vietnam continues to attract strong interest from Japanese manufacturers seeking sustainable partnerships, local supply-chain collaboration, and market expansion.

Nissho’s capabilities in high-accuracy, contamination-controlled processing attracted considerable attention from Vietnamese manufacturers seeking localized suppliers for components, sub-assembly materials, and high-performance industrial films.
Several Vietnamese companies expressed interest in testing samples and exploring long-term outsourcing or co-development arrangements.

Business Matching activities

During the exhibition, both Tokuden and Nissho engaged in constructive early-stage discussions with Vietnamese companies, generating initial interest and identifying several potential collaboration pathways.

Both exhibiting companies engaged with buyers, distributors, and technical solution providers from multiple industries. Visitors also expressed interest in continuing discussions after the event, requesting company materials and exchanging contact information for further evaluation. Several Vietnamese firms—particularly those operating in machinery, industrial components, packaging, and technical services—indicated that the technologies presented by Shiga companies could align well with their future development needs and could be competitive in the Vietnamese market.

Overall, the exhibition provided a productive platform for initial business networking, helping Shiga companies better understand market demand while opening avenues for potential cooperation in areas such as technology application, product supply, and industrial support solutions. These early-stage engagements will serve as a foundation for follow-up discussions and deeper collaboration in the coming months.

Advancing Shiga–Vietnam Economic Cooperation

The active participation of Shiga Prefecture at VINAMAC Expo 2025 further reinforces the prefecture’s commitment to strengthening long-term economic ties with Vietnam, one of the fastest-growing industrial markets in the region. Moving forward, B&Company, as Shiga Vietnam Business Support Desk, will continue supporting Japanese companies seeking market entry and collaboration opportunities in Vietnam, while helping Vietnamese businesses connect with Japanese suppliers, technologies, and investment prospects. These efforts aim to deepen bilateral cooperation, expand industrial partnerships, and contribute to sustainable economic development for both regions.
