Promoting the application of digital technology in new-style rural area building is an important criterion, contributing to the development of agricultural and rural economy, improving people's lives, and gradually narrowing the gap in service quality between rural and urban areas.
Many OCOP (one commune one product) products sold on Hoa Binh e-commerce platform.
Currently, in the province, 114 out of the 129 communes have cooperatives applying digital technology, reaching 88.4%. They have used digital technology in product management and traceability. The commune's key products are traded on e-commerce platforms and social networks such as Zalo, Facebook, and Postmart.
The development of the digital economy has gradually changed the awareness and traditional ways of people and households about product sale in the digital space, and e-commerce platforms, thus contributing to expanding the market from being limited in the locality, the district, the province to other provinces and nationwide.
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.
