As a result, 600 households and cooperatives have been trained in digital skills, how to sell products on e-commerce platforms, and how to package, receive orders, and send products to buyers while operating online. As many as 339 farming households have opened accounts on Postmart.vn.

In terms of seasonal produce that have short harvest and usage periods like fruits and vegetables, the Vietnam Post branch will optimise its widespread network and worker abundance collect and transport products quickly, thereby minimising costs, ensuring product quality, and cutting down the time needed for items to reach consumers.
