Why Vietnam

With more buyers becoming dissatisfied with the China system for various reasons, they are looking to relocate their sourcing requirements to countries like Vietnam. Vietnam is the third fastest-growing economy in the world and has a young yet skilled workforce, which makes it attractive for manufacturing.

Even before the trade war, Vietnam was a great destination for several products, including furniture, footwear, and apparel, among many other items. With tariffs imposed on Chinese goods, even more products are viable to be manufactured in Vietnam than in China.

Everything is covered in the fee you pay - airport transfers, 5-star hotels, domestic flights, each and every meal, alcoholic beverages on some nights, SIM card, overnight on the boat, cultural experiences and ALL transportation (to and from factories, trade show, tourist spots). You won’t need to open up your wallet during the trip - except for shopping and personal expenses.

All you need to do is arrive at Hanoi airport, and everything else thereafter will be taken care of for you.

This will allow you to focus on learning, networking, masterminding, building relationships, taking notes, and soaking up the culture.

We understand business travel to a new country can be stressful. We know moving sourcing from one country to another is a huge task - there’s so much to learn and so many moving parts. This is why we take care of the trip logistics for you so you can focus on what’s most important - your business.

All-inclusive Trip


When we say the trip is all-inclusive we really mean it’s AAAALLLL-INCLUSIVE!

Shorter trip if you’re on a budget

If you’re a new seller or have limited resources, you can opt for a shorter version of Vietnam Sourcing Trip.

This 5-day trip is also convenient for those with a busy schedule or who prefer a more concise itinerary.

Called CORE, this trip allows you to focus only on the educational and sourcing portions of the trip.

Instead of visiting 10+ factories across 3 cities, you will visit 5+ factories in Ho Chi Minh City. You'll still get introductions to key service providers, and attend Global Sourcing trade show to meet with suppliers and see products.

Now’s the time to diversify!

The cost of manufacturing in China has been rising steadily for over a decade and will only increase. Even if China is the best place for you to source now, it may not be in the future.

For many, now is the best time to look at alternative destinations to ensure stability and continuity in their supply chain.

And there’s no better way to explore a new sourcing market than to go there.

Join us on Vietnam Sourcing Trip to discover how this fast-developing country can support your brand in the long-term.

This Trip will be an experience of a lifetime and will likely change the trajectory of your business!
