The listing of farm produce and Cao Phong orange on the Vietnam Post
Corporation (Vietnam Post)’s e-commerce platform of Postmart.vn is among new
solutions to support farmers in selling their products. The measure has proved
to be effective amid the complicated COVID-19 developments in many localities.
Currently, the Hoa Binh Post has helped nearly 40 suppliers across the province
to put 56 kinds of products on Postmart.
In Cao Phong, the Hoa Binh Post has guided local farmers and cooperatives in
registering to join the e-commerce platform, helping them connect with
customers, and expanding distribution channels and markets for Hoa Binh
agricultural products. The company aims to sell about 2,000 tonnes of Cao Phong
orange until the end of this year and continue to sell other products of
different localities across the province.
At the conference, officials from the Hoa Binh Post introduced the capacity and
coverage of the Vietnam Post, and answered many questions of local farmers
regarding the transport of the product, information security, how to avoid
congestion when orange enters peak harvesting season, thus ensuring stability
of orange prices and avoiding dependence on traders.
The company signed several agreements with farmers and cooperatives engaging in
production and trading of Cao Phong orange on the sale of the product./.
