The global demand for home décor, gifts, and houseware products is rapidly shifting toward sustainability and authenticity. To meet this trend, international buyers are actively seeking reliable suppliers at leading trade fairs. Among them, Lifestyle Vietnam Fair 2025, held from October 18–21, 2025, in Ho Chi Minh City, stands out as one of the largest international home décor and gifts exhibitions in Asia. With thousands of buyers and hundreds of exhibitors, the fair is not just a marketplace — it is a strategic gateway for B2B sourcing in wooden kitchenware, wooden boxes, and wooden houseware.
What is Lifestyle Vietnam Fair?
A Recognized International Event
Lifestyle Vietnam Fair, also known as the Vietnam International Home Décor and Gifts Fair, has become a leading destination for global buyers since its establishment. The fair is organized by Vietcraft – the Vietnam Handicraft Exporters Association, and is supported by international trade promotion organizations.
Scale and Participation
Each year, the fair brings together nearly 600 exhibitors from Vietnam and overseas, covering diverse product categories such as housewares, home décor, kitchenware, textiles, furniture, and gifts. It attracts more than 3,000 international buyers from over 40 countries, alongside 10,000 Vietnamese buyers, making it one of the most important platforms for companies looking to expand in Asia’s sourcing hub.
Why Global Buyers Attend
The event offers a unique opportunity for importers, wholesalers, retailers, and distributors to connect with certified, export-ready suppliers directly. In particular, wooden kitchenware and houseware products from Vietnam — known for their sustainable sourcing, FSC certification, and competitive pricing — receive strong attention from international markets.
Why Lifestyle Vietnam Matters for Wooden Kitchenware & Houseware Suppliers
A Direct Match with Global Demand
One of the strongest reasons Lifestyle Vietnam Fair is highly relevant for wooden product suppliers is the alignment with international market trends. Buyers today are searching for eco-friendly, functional, and durable wooden products — from cutting boards and serving trays to storage boxes and home accessories. Lifestyle Vietnam positions these product categories at the heart of the exhibition, ensuring that suppliers reach the right audience.

Sustainability as a Competitive Edge
In global sourcing, sustainability is no longer optional; it is a requirement. According to a report by McKinsey (2023), over 60% of consumers in Europe and North America are willing to pay more for sustainable products. For B2B buyers, this translates into a growing demand for FSC-certified wooden kitchenware and houseware. Exhibiting at Lifestyle Vietnam provides suppliers a powerful stage to showcase their certifications (FSC, BSCI, FDA, LFGB, Prop 65) and build trust with international importers.
Vietnam’s Advantage in Wooden Products
Vietnam is among the world’s top exporters of wooden goods, thanks to its abundant natural resources, skilled craftsmanship, and competitive production costs. By participating in Lifestyle Vietnam, wooden kitchenware and houseware manufacturers can highlight these strengths while meeting global buyers who prioritize quality, scalability, and ethical sourcing.
Opportunities for Global Buyers
Reliable Access to Certified Suppliers
For international buyers, sourcing at Lifestyle Vietnam Fair provides direct access to a network of highly qualified, export-ready suppliers. Many exhibitors specialize in wooden kitchenware, wooden houseware, and wooden packaging solutions, ensuring that buyers can identify partners who meet the growing demand for sustainable products. Importantly, a large number of these suppliers hold internationally recognized certifications such as FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative), FDA & LFGB for food safety, and California Proposition 65 compliance. These credentials give buyers peace of mind that their sourcing decisions are not only commercially viable but also ethically responsible.
A Hub for Diverse Wooden Product Portfolios
The fair acts as a concentrated marketplace where buyers can explore a broad spectrum of wooden products in one location. Categories range from solid teak cutting boards, serving trays, salad bowls, and utensil sets to wooden storage boxes, decorative pieces, and household essentials. This level of product variety saves buyers time and reduces sourcing costs by enabling them to evaluate multiple suppliers, compare craftsmanship, and negotiate contracts in a single visit. For distributors and wholesalers, this consolidated experience ensures faster decision-making and stronger supplier relationships.
Growing Global Demand for Wooden Kitchenware & Houseware
Industry research shows that the global wooden kitchenware market is projected to grow steadily between 2024 and 2030, driven by consumer preference for eco-friendly and reusable products. According to Grand View Research (2024), the global kitchenware market size exceeded USD 60 billion in 2023, with wooden kitchenware representing one of the fastest-growing segments. Lifestyle Vietnam positions buyers at the forefront of this demand curve, giving them direct access to suppliers who can deliver both scale and innovation.
Vietnam’s Advantage in the Global Supply Chain
Vietnam is currently ranked among the world’s top 5 wood product exporters, generating over USD 14 billion in wood and wood product exports in 2023 (Statista, 2024). This success is attributed to the country’s abundant raw materials, skilled craftsmanship, and strong compliance with international sustainability standards. For global buyers, sourcing from Vietnamese suppliers at Lifestyle Vietnam means access to:
- Competitive pricing structures compared to other manufacturing hubs.
- Flexibility in customization, from design to packaging.
- Stable supply capacity, with large volumes suited for wholesalers and retailers.
- A reputation for craftsmanship, particularly in acacia, teak, and rubberwood products.
Strategic Networking & Long-Term Partnerships
Beyond the exhibition floor, Lifestyle Vietnam Fair creates an environment where strategic partnerships can be built. Buyers can attend B2B networking sessions, engage in private negotiations, and establish long-term collaborations with suppliers. This direct engagement reduces the risk of miscommunication that often arises in online sourcing and creates opportunities for buyers to secure exclusive deals, co-branding options, and private label agreements.
Positioning for Sustainability-Driven Markets
With sustainability regulations tightening in regions like the European Union, North America, and Japan, retailers and distributors face increasing pressure to ensure their supply chains are transparent. Partnering with FSC-certified Vietnamese suppliers found at Lifestyle Vietnam enables buyers to align with these requirements while also strengthening their brand image as environmentally responsible businesses.
Recommendations for Making the Most of Lifestyle Vietnam Fair
For Global Buyers
- Do Market Research Before the Fair: Study current trends in wooden kitchenware, houseware, and packaging to identify which product lines are gaining the most demand. This will help you prioritize which exhibitors to meet.
- Shortlist Certified Suppliers: Focus on exhibitors that display FSC, BSCI, FDA, and LFGB certifications. These guarantees will simplify compliance checks for your target markets.
- Plan Meetings in Advance: Contact key exhibitors ahead of time to schedule private discussions. This ensures you can cover more ground efficiently and secure priority slots with high-demand suppliers.
- Inspect Quality On-Site: Use the fair as an opportunity to physically assess the quality of wooden products — craftsmanship, finishing, and durability often reveal themselves better in person than in catalogs.
- Negotiate for Long-Term Partnerships: Don’t just focus on pricing; discuss scalability, product development capabilities, and potential private-label collaborations to create lasting value.
For Exhibitors (Like Wooden Product Manufacturers)
- Highlight Sustainability: Prominently showcase certifications such as FSC at your booth, since many buyers now start their selection process based on sustainability credentials.
- Present a Professional Catalog: Offer a clear, English-language product catalog with specifications, certifications, and MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity). Buyers value clarity and transparency.
- Prepare Samples Strategically: Display both best-selling items (like wooden cutting boards and storage boxes) and innovative designs that reflect current trends. This balance shows both reliability and creativity.
- Train Booth Staff for B2B Conversations: Ensure your team can answer detailed questions on production capacity, lead times, compliance standards, and customization options.
- Leverage Post-Fair Follow-Up: Collect business cards and buyer details, then follow up within one week. Prompt responses increase your chances of converting leads into long-term contracts.
Why These Recommendations Matter
Trade fairs like Lifestyle Vietnam are not only marketplaces but also relationship-building platforms. With thousands of booths competing for attention, both buyers and exhibitors must approach the event with a clear strategy. Those who prepare in advance, emphasize sustainability, and communicate professionally will gain the greatest return on investment from the fair.
