The e-commerce floor is aimed at realising the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s national program to help firms tap the EU - Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) via e-commerce.
Bac Kan now has 131 OCOP products, 13 of which have met four-star standards. But Bac Kan's products still face difficulties navigating the market, especially supermarket chains.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Pham Duy Hung said e-commerce has become an indispensable trend and will help companies and cooperatives explore markets and promote products among domestic consumers.
The Chairman of the Kim Nam Group Nguyen, which is contracted to operate the e-commerce floor, said transactions on the floor will be free for one year. The group will later hand it over to the locality to manage. It also offers training to companies and cooperatives.
