Organised by the Ha Noi Department of Industry and Trade, the event brings together businesses and producers from Ha Noi and other provinces and cities to showcase handicrafts, gifts and other products for export.
The four-day fair will feature a forum on trends and solutions for developing Ha Noi’s handicraft products, as well as a conference on connecting supply and demand for raw materials in the handicraft sector on October 9. An awards ceremony for the 2026 new handicraft product design competition will be held on October 10.
The programme will also include business-matching activities, negotiations and the signing of memorandums of understanding and contracts, along with displays of newly designed handicraft products and demonstrations of traditional crafts by Ha Noi artisans.
A key focus of Ha Noi Giftshow 2026 is to strengthen both in-person and online business connections in line with the growth of e-commerce and the digital economy. Participating businesses will receive online promotion and support to connect with buyers and showcase their products on domestic and international e-commerce platforms after the fair.
The fair is expected to attract more than 10,000 visitors and buyers.
