Vietnamese businesses in Berlin hold New Year get-together

In his speech, Chu Tuan Duc, minister-counsellor at the Vietnamese Embassy, displayed elation at the strong development and success of enterprises based there.

Duc outlined his belief that the Vietnamese people in Germany will continue to record greater achievements and serve as a bridge for mutual ties, adding that the strategic partnership between the two nations is not only strengthened by the two governments, but also nurtured by the peoples, businesses, and localities.

He went on to affirm that over the years, Dong Xuan Trade Center has become an economic hub in the German capital, a valuable source of contribution to Lichtenberg district in particular and to Berlin in general.

Furthermore, he believes that the centre has truly become a cultural and exchange centre, serving as a meeting place for the Vietnamese community in Germany.

Mayor of Licktenberge Martin Schaefer pledged to support Vietnamese businesses operating there for the causes of sustainable development and better integration.

According to Nguyen Xuan Dinh, a representative of the Vietnamese businesses operating at the Center, the Dong Xuan Cultural Center building which is within the campus of Dong Xuan Trade Center, opened in 2023 with an investment capital of more than EUR20 million. It has always been a cultural exchange meeting point for the Vietnamese community in Berlin.

Dong Xuan Trade Center was first established in the early 2000s and is considered to be the largest trade centre for Vietnamese nationals in Germany, whilst it is also the largest Asian market in Berlin.
