(HBO) – As many as 11 businesses and cooperatives from the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh have attended a trade promotion conference in Hanoi which aimed to connect supply and demand between the capital city and other cities and provinces.
The annual
event was held by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Hanoi People’s
Committee.
Hoa Binh sets up a booth to promote its products at the event.
These
businesses and cooperatives brought to the event various signature products,
such as Tan Lac red-flesh pomelo, solanum procumbens, sacha inchi, Cao Phong
orange, Luong Son organic vegetables, Kim Boi bamboo shoots, Da River fish. Hoa
Binh also inked five memoranda of understanding to set up distribution channels
between firms from the province and Hanoi.
Hanoi is the
hub for consumption and trade of Vietnamese products where companies meet and
bring the products to other parts of the country. Over years, the capital city
has implemented many cooperation programme and organised trade promotion events
with other cities and provinces, including Hoa Binh. Such effort has created
many opportunities for economic partnership to expand, develop production, take
advantage of provincial potential and strengthen distribution channels./.
Once a mountainous province facing many challenges, Hoa Binh has, after more than a decade of implementing the national target programme on new-style rural area development, emerged as a bright spot in Vietnam’s northern midland and mountainous region. In the first quarter of 2025, the province recorded positive results, paving the way for Hoa Binh to enter a phase of accelerated growth with a proactive and confident mindset.
Hoa Binh province is steadily advancing its agricultural sector through the adoption of high-tech solutions, seen as a sustainable path for long-term development.
The steering committee for key projects of Hoa Binh province convened on May 14 to assess the progress of major ongoing developments
A delegation of Hoa Binh province has attended the "Meet Korea 2025" event, recently held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Vietnam, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the People's Committee of Hung Yen province.
Hoa Binh province joined Vietnam’s national "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) programme in 2019, not simply as a mountainous region following central policy, but with a clear vision to revive the cultural and agricultural values in its villages and crops.
From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
