 Lac Son District People's Committee directs the construction of booths to display, introduce and sell local OCOP products.

Among the products proposed to develop into the district’s OCOP this year is Muong sticky rice wine made by an establishment in Vu Ban township.

Therefore, wine is completely made from yeast and specialty rice grown in Mien Doi commune. Besides, foreign wine-making technology is also applied to produce high-quality local wine.

Tuan said that his family received instructions from departments, agencies, and the People's Committee of Lac Son district to perfect the wine production process. "We signed contracts with sticky rice growing households in Mien Doi commune to build a material area for wine production."

In addition to Muong wine, this year Lac Son district will continue to include other products in the OCOP programme such as green-skinned pomelo (Yen Phu commune); sticky rice (Mien Doi commune); Muong Vang honey and Muong Vang "can” wine (Tan Lap commune).

Phan Thi Hanh, Deputy Head of the district’s Agriculture and Rural Development Department, said that the district focuses on supporting standardisation and product development towards producing quality goods; consulting, guiding those who participate in the OCOP programme in completing dossiers, registering intellectual property, certifying products according to safe production standards.

Apart from focusing on developing new products, the district also pays attention to products that have been evaluated and ranked to make it continue to meet requirements for export.

The district focuses on coordinating and opening training courses for managers and administrators of the OCOP programme in communes, towns, and participants to improve their knowledge and skills in developing business plans, packaging, labelling, and branding.

The district has built booths to display and sell OCOP products in the district and other localities. Its specialty products are also introduced on e-commerce trading floors./.
