The delegation, led by Nguyen Cao Son, President of the provincial Association of Enterprises, held a meeting with Tran Ba Phuc, President of the Vietnamese Business Association in Australia (VBAA) in Melbourne, and over 20 members of the Vietnamese young entrepreneurs club in Australia.
During the meeting, Son said Hoa Binh-based firms hope to set up new relations and find new business partners in Melbourne during the visit.
He also introduced the province’s advantages and investment potential for Australia-based enterprises.
Son called on the VBAA to consider partnering up with enterprises in Hoa Binh in health care, education, construction, and agricultural production, and help with the export of Hoa Binh’s key products to Australia.
Representatives from VBAA briefed the delegation on the Australian market, good demands and import taxes. They also shared with the guests experience in doing business in Australia.
The VBAA President appreciated the potential, advantages and incentives offered by Hoa Binh, pledging that he will do his utmost to promote the province’s potential in Melbourne in particular, and Australia in general.
