This year the event attracted the participation of more than 450 enterprises from 12 different countries and territories, including the US, Italy, France, Germany, the UK, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Singapore, China, and Vietnam.

The businesses are showcasing a wide range of new products related to construction, intelligent housing systems, and interior and exterior decoration, alongside household equipment such as air conditioners, kitchen utensils etc.

Addressing the opening ceremony, Deputy Minister of Construction Bui Pham Khanh said that, with the government's economic management policies, the development of urban areas and houses under planning is a good condition for the development of the real estate market, attracting the attention of domestic and foreign investors. As a result, the structure of real estate products has become more relevant to the market, in that the type of social housing has met the needs of the urban population, he added.

Under the framework of the expo, a workshop on “Unbaked construction materials – green construction materials for green projects”, business forums and a customers’ conference will also be held to help businesses to gain a better insight into market demands.

The expo is taking place at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Centre in District 7 and will run until December 18.
