(HBO) – The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee and the Ho Chi Minh City Union of Trading Cooperatives (Saigon Co.op) has organised a week introducing the province’s agricultural and food products at five Co.opmart supermarkets in three districts of Hanoi from December 7 to 13.
This is an important activity in a series of events promoting local farm
produce in the Saigon Co.op system.
Thirty-three cooperatives and businesses from
Hoa Binh has attended the week, showcasing a wide range of high-quality
products meeting VietGAP standards like Cao Phong orange, Tan Lac red-flesh
pomelo, Luong Son organic vegetables, fish farmed in the Da River, Lac Son hill
chicken, and products made from sacha inchi.
At the week’s opening ceremony, Vice Chairman of
the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Dung said the event provides a
favourable condition for local cooperatives and businesses to boost
partnerships in the sale of products with the Co.opmart system in Hanoi and
nationwide.
During the week, Hoa Binh pledged to create the
best possible conditions for enterprises and investors to seek chances for
long-term investment and business in the province, especially those wishing to
invest in the production, sale and export of agricultural products. It also
vowed to further perfect the agricultural production process, particularly
hi-tech and organic farming, to supply high-quality products to consumers.
The province hoped to receive closer coordination
from ministries, central agencies, the Vietnam Cooperative Alliance (VCA), the
Hanoi People’s Committee and Saigon Co.op in the organisation of supply-demand
connecting activities, thereby providing better products for consumers and
helping local cooperatives and farming households improve income and expand
production.
VCA President Nguyen Ngoc Bao said the Hoa Binh
Agricultural and Food Products Week coincides with the time the consumption
demand in Hanoi is soaring.
He highly valued the province’s agricultural
production over the past years, adding that Hoa Binh holds huge potential for
the large-scale production of high-quality agricultural and food products.
Besides, one of its advantages is being located next to Hanoi capital.
In the time ahead, the VCA will carry out
programmes to support agricultural chains in Hoa Binh, firstly the fish, orange
and vegetable production chains, and connect the province with retail chains in
Hanoi, including the Co.opmart network.
At the opening ceremony, Co.opmart and 10
businesses and cooperatives of Hoa Binh signed memoranda of understanding on
sale cooperation./.
