This year, VIFA Expo and its organiser Lien Minh Company achieved significant milestones, further cementing their position in Vietnam's furniture and home decor industry.
VIFA Expo was honoured by the Vietnam Records Organization (VietKings) as the longest-running and largest-scale event in the industry, while Lien Minh Company received the award for Top Outstanding Enterprise in Vietnam – both achievements providing strong evidence of VIFA Expo’s reputation and Lien Minh Company's organisational capabilities.
At the opening ceremony of VIFA ASEAN 2025, held on 26th August in Ho Chi Minh City, VIFA Expo was officially recognised by the Vietnam Records Organization (VietKings), under the Vietnam Records Association, with the title ‘VIFA Expo – the annual old established and largest international furniture and home accessories fair brand in Vietnam (since 2008).’
“This is not just a symbolic title, but an official recognition of VIFA Expo’s sustainable development history and its leading scale within Vietnam's furniture, woodwork and handicraft industries,” says Lien Minh Company. “This record is a well-deserved acknowledgment of VIFA Expo’s journey through 16 continuous editions and development since 2008. It serves as a powerful motivation for the event to continue its path toward professionalism, quality improvement and scale expansion, ready to stand alongside major furniture exhibitions in the region and globally.”
Alliance Handicraft & Wooden Fine Art Corporation (Lien Minh Company) – the owner and organiser of the VIFA Expo brand — has strived to build a professional, industry-leading trade promotional fair, establishing it as a vital export bridge for Vietnam's furniture and home decor sector.
Its achievement is not only the result of the relentless efforts of Lien Minh Company’s staff, but a testament to the international-calibre event-organising capability of a purely Vietnamese company – along with the trust and partnership of relevant organisations, enterprises, visitors, partners, and the press and media, both domestic and international.
Just under a month after VIFA Expo was honoured with the Vietnam Record title, on 13th September Lien Minh Company was recognised with the ‘Top 20 Excellent Enterprises in Vietnam 2025’ award, certified by the Science Institute for Development of Economic and Cultural Manpower (SIDECM) and the Center for Research and Application of Consumer Protection Technology (CONPROCEN).
“This award is a recognition and honour for Lien Minh Company's positive contributions to the nation's economic development, particularly in the field of export trade promotion,” states the show organiser. “Furthermore, it serves as a practical confirmation of the company's professional organisational capacity, its global connectivity capabilities, and its leading position in the industry.
Both are milestones which affirm the company's reputation in the industry and serve as a foundation to continue building and developing two major fair brands, VIFA Expo (since 2008) and VIFA ASEAN (since 2023), fulfilling Lien Minh’s mission of connecting trade, linking the production-export value chain, and elevating Vietnam's furniture, woodwork and handicraft industry on the global economic map.
Following the success built on 16 previous exhibitions, VIFA Expo 2026 (its 17th edition) will, for the first time, be held at two major exhibition centres in Ho Chi Minh City – SKY Expo (Trung My Tay Ward) and WTC Expo (Binh Duong Ward), from 8-11the March 2026. The organiser expects to attract over 650 enterprises across a total scale of 2,800 booths, alongside numerous engaging activities.
Specifically, Lien Minh Company will implement a free shuttle bus programme, with three routes connecting the Tan Son Nhat Airport area with the venues, facilitating travel for all visitors and exhibitors throughout the four days of the exhibition. The organising committee will also offer support programmes to ensure VIFA Expo’s guests have “the best possible experience”.
Furthermore, Lien Minh Company will continue to strengthen the import-export community with VIFA ASEAN 2026 (fourth edition), taking place from 2nd-5th September 2026 at SECC (Tan My Ward, Ho Chi Minh City).
“This will continue to serve as a new platform that helps elevate the influence of the ASEAN furniture, home decor and handicraft community on the global stage,” concludes Lien Minh Company.
