Vietnam is a nation with a distinct culture. Due to the differing schedules for working holidays, it is difficult for Vietnamese factories to negotiate with foreign companies at certain times of the year. The festivities in Vietnam are centered on the lunar calendar and play an important role in the Vietnamese people's everyday lives.

Agriculture continues to be one of the most important sectors in the Vietnamese economy, employing a large number of people. As a result, handicraft output is lower during the harvest season than during the other seasons.
Seagrass Harvest
According to estimates, there are approximately 2,000 traditional handicraft villages in Vietnam. Craftsmen produce major products in these villages, but they are also farmers who work in the fields, especially during harvest season.
Many handicraft manufacturers collaborate with village farmers, but they overlook two important aspects: festivals and harvest seasons. Farmers take part in local festivals and are also active in the production of products for export. As a result, the peak season for handicraft production coincides with harvest and festival seasons. There are two major rice seasons in northern Vietnam: Chiem Xuan and Mua, which take place in the first half of May.
We'd like to share some useful knowledge about Vietnamese festival seasons and national holidays. According to 2009 figures, Vietnam has 7966 festivals, with 7039 folk festivals, 332 historical festivals, 544 religious festivals, 10 festivals imported from other countries, and the remainder being other festivals (0.5 percent). Hanoi, Bac Ninh, Ha Nam, Hai Duong, and Phu Tho are the provinces with the most festivals. Festivals are held in almost every part of the country.
Water Hyacinth Harvest
Many festivals began thousands of years ago and have survived to this day. In Vietnam, traditional festivals are often held in the spring and autumn seasons.
The following are some of the Vietnamese holidays that are important to almost all Vietnamese families:
- Lunar New Year – National Holidays
- Doi Son Festival – It takes place in Doi Son, Duy Tien, Ha Nam province traditional festive activity to pray for good weather and bumper crops and for encouraging farming production and farmers to work harder (Februrary)
- Vu Lan Ceremony – love and gratitude to ancestors and parents (August)
- The Hung Temple Festival – Vietnamese festival held annually from the 8th to the 11th day of the third lunar month in honor to the Hùng Vương Kings. The main festival day is a public holiday in Vietnam held on the 10th day of March of the lunar calendar
- Liberation Day/Reunification Day: Fall of Saigon and reunification of Vietnam in 1975 and International Workers’ Day (30/04- 01/05)
- National Day (Vietnam): 02/09 – Vietnam declares its independence, forming the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam)
- Tet Trung Thu – The Mid-Autumn festival (15 days between early September and early October)
- Christmas
The easiest way to make a production plan during harvest and festival seasons is to:
- offer all harvest and festival season details to customers.
- to begin manufacturing prior to the harvest and festival seasons
- to make the distribution process go faster
We are worried about the quality of our products at KING CRAFT VIET. We deal with a lot of international customers and have earned a strong reputation over the years. Doing business with us is easy, but delivery times are affected by cultural factors and harvest in Vietnam and other countries. We make every effort to deliver on time.
