(HBO) – As many as 11 businesses and cooperatives from the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh have attended a trade promotion conference in Hanoi which aimed to connect supply and demand between the capital city and other cities and provinces.
The annual
event was held by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Hanoi People’s
Committee.
Hoa Binh sets up a booth to promote its products at the event.
These
businesses and cooperatives brought to the event various signature products,
such as Tan Lac red-flesh pomelo, solanum procumbens, sacha inchi, Cao Phong
orange, Luong Son organic vegetables, Kim Boi bamboo shoots, Da River fish. Hoa
Binh also inked five memoranda of understanding to set up distribution channels
between firms from the province and Hanoi.

hub for consumption and trade of Vietnamese products where companies meet and
bring the products to other parts of the country. Over years, the capital city

many opportunities for economic partnership to expand, develop production, take
advantage of provincial potential and strengthen distribution channels./.
