Orissa International supported a US-based craft brewery and distillery’s participation in a major food and beverage (F&B) trade mission to Vietnam. The mission aimed to connect US food and beverage exporters with Southeast Asian partners. We identified potential F&B distributors in Vietnam and arranged numerous in-person business matching meetings. These meetings provided valuable insights into the Vietnamese market, allowed the company to connect with key importers and distributors in the beverage sector, and led to the shortlisting of suitable partners for further collaboration. The mission helped establish a foundation for future distribution and export opportunities in Vietnam and the broader Southeast Asian region.
