One highlight was the week to introduce Hoa Binh province’s products in 2024 which was held in Hanoi from November 28 to December 1 as part of the "Proud of Vietnamese Agricultural Products” programme.
With over 20 booths and more than 100 specialty products, Hoa Binh showcased renowned farm produce such as Cao Phong oranges, Tan Lac pomelos, and Trung Khe rice, among others. The event also attracted over 150 businesses from 32 provinces and cities, displaying 1,500 regional specialties and opening new trade opportunities.

Besides Hanoi, Hoa Binh province also hosted regional fairs to promote trade and tourism, including events in Lac Son, Mai Chau and Yen Thuy districts. These efforts, organised under the provincial People's Committee's direction, fostered economic, political, and social benefits, increasing the province's appeal as a trade and tourism destination.

Red grapefruit is a native crop of Tan Lac district, where the fertile soil and favourable climate create ideal conditions for its growth. With over 80% of the area being mountainous, at an altitude of 300-400 metres above sea level, red grapefruits here thrive on well-drained, fertile hillside soil. The region’s large temperature variation between day and night enhances the fruit's nutrient absorption. The local cultivation techniques also contribute to its uniqueness
