Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Ho Thi Kim Thoa lauded the model and expressed her hope that the VCA will duplicate the model nationwide and promote the “Vietnamese give priority to Vietnamese products” campaign: “Producers need to honor their commitment to produce products that meet food hygiene and safety requirements. Cooperatives need to closely monitor the production process to ensure safe products”.
The Vietnam Cooperative Alliance plans to open between 50 and 100 supermarkets providing safe agricultural products this year.
