During the visit, Dr. Naresh Babu N., Joint Secretary (Tech.), Central Silk Board, felicitated the Chairman of Bitexco Nam Long Joint Stock Company, one of Vietnam's leading textile manufacturers and exporters, with the Five-in-One Silk Stole and invited the company to participate in Bharat Tex 2026. He also invited Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association (VITAS) for Bharat Tex 2026 and interacted with the Vietnam Association of Craft Villages (VICRAFTS) on promotion of handlooms and handicrafts, product development, village-level strategies, exports and policy support, with the association expressed keen interest in collaboration.

During the visit, the delegation also called on Tshering Wangchuk Sherpa, Ambassador of India to Vietnam, at the Embassy of India, Hanoi, and discussed avenues for strengthening bilateral cooperation in the silk and textile sectors.

The delegation visited the historic Van Phuc Silk Craft Village in Hanoi and interacted with local weavers and artisans, gaining insights into its integrated model linking weaving, embroidery, design, fashion and market access, with key learnings for developing a sericulture-tourism model in India.

The delegation toured modern facilities, including automatic reeling units and mulberry farms, and also participated in major international exhibitions - Vietnam International Value Chain Exhibition 2026 (VIVC 2026) and the Vietnam Glorious Spring Fair 2026 (VGSF 2026) at the Vietnam Exhibition Center, where the Central Silk Board stall showcasing Indian silk products attracted strong interest, highlighting growing global opportunities for Indian silk. They further visited traditional silk outlets in Ho Chi Minh City, where they examined a diverse range of silk fabrics and heritage fashion products.
