(HBO) – In the recent past, the Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has ordered relevant departments and sectors to keep a close watch on the market situation and take measures to ensure supply - demand balance and stabilise prices of essential goods so as to meet people’s demand.

The Vincom Plaza shopping centre
in Hoa Binh city has ensured sufficient supply of goods to meet consumers’
demand.
In November, trading activities in Hoa Binh
province were kept stable. The retail sales of goods and service revenue in the
month was estimated at 3.885 trillion VND (169.4 million USD), up 0.52 percent
from October. The 11-month figure stood at 40.547 trillion VND, equivalent to
91.19 percent of this year’s target.
Meanwhile, the consumer price index (CPI) in
November rose by some 0.31 percent month on month as a result of higher prices
of education, electricity, water, fuel, and construction materials.
Relevant sectors in the province are working on
a plan to stabilise the market during the New Year and Lunar New Year holidays.
They are also pushing ahead with measures to ensure sufficient supply of
essential goods in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic./.
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.

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.
