HANOI – Following the proven success of the ProPak Vietnam series, event organizer Informa Markets has officially announced PROPAK HANOI 2026 – the first-ever International Processing & Packaging Exhibition tailored for the Northern Vietnam market. The milestone event is set to take place from October 13 to October 15, 2026, at the Vietnam Exhibition Center (VEC), Dong Anh District, Hanoi.

Positioned as a strategic move to tap into the key northern economic zone, ProPak Hanoi 2026 expects to gather over 200 exhibiting companies from 20 countries and regions, spanning an exhibition area of 8,000 sqm, and attracting more than 4,000 trade visitors.

A Technology Hub for the New Industrial Wave

The rapid growth of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into Northern Vietnam (recording a 35% increase in Q1/2025) has transformed the region into a key manufacturing hub. This surge drives an urgent demand for advanced processing technologies, optimized packaging, and production line automation.

An Effective B2B Trade Platform

The exhibition is completely free to enter for business delegations, high-level buyers, industry experts, and representatives from diverse channels: manufacturers, importers/exporters, wholesalers/retailers, as well as regulatory agencies and consultancy firms.

In addition to state-of-the-art machinery showcases, the event features specialized conference series and technology live-demos to help businesses capture market trends and enhance operational efficiency. Furthermore, the organizer offers exclusive incentives—such as Fast-Track check-in, complimentary shuttle services, and free lunch vouchers—for registered business delegations of 10 members or more.

The launch of ProPak Hanoi 2026 at the Vietnam Exhibition Center (VEC) promises to serve as a vital commercial bridge, driving sustainable development for the processing and packaging industry across Vietnam.
