It provides visitors an insight into the latest processing, packaging recycling and environment treatment technologies, animal feed and veterinary machines, milk testing equipment, and digital transformation service and solutions in the dairy sector, among others.
Nguyen Van Nga, head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s representative office in the south, said the event is expected to provide consumers with shopping skills, food safety knowledge as well as environmental protection information.
Several conferences discussing solutions for applying a circular economy in the dairy industry; facilitating consumption of milk and milk products in the Vietnamese market and speeding up digital transformation in the sector are also scheduled on the sidelines of the event.
Despite difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the domestic dairy industry still produced over 1.86 billion litres of fresh milk in 2023, up 7.5% year-on-year. Powdered milk production volume also saw a modest growth rate of 0.1% year-on-year to over 154,000 tonnes.
Last year, the sector recorded a revenue of over 25.88 trillion VND (4.95 billion USD) amid the challenging context. First introduced in 2017, biennial VIETNAM DAIRY aims to help the dairy sector better integrate into the global market and develop sustainably.
