proposed the provincial People’s Committee direct Hoa Binh city and districts

and preservation capacity and diversifying promotion activities, focusing on
the markets of Hanoi and other adjacent localities, while expanding to other
markets, both at home and abroad.
The Department of Agriculture and Rural

GlobalGap certificates to production facilities. As many as 28 facilities have
received such certificates so far, and 23 products won the OCOP (One Commune
One Product) title with three stars and more.
During the COVID-19 spread, promotion activities
were held online. However, after the pandemic was brought under control, Hoa
Binh organised and joined various fairs, conferences and festivals.
Hieu said Hoa Binh has utilised
information-technology, digital transformation and e-commerce in the promotion
activities, noting that up to 2,853 agricultural products were put up for sale
on e-commerce platforms in the year, with over 215 tonnes sold.
Apart from the domestic market, the province
also enhanced trade promotion abroad. As a result, 14 facilities have exported
products to China, Taiwan, Japan, Australia, the Republic of Korea, the EU, the
Netherlands, Germany and the UK, up six from 2021. /.
