Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Dung speaks at the
meeting.
The week will be organised at five Co.op marts
in Ha Dong, Hoang Mai and Long Bien districts of Hanoi. Staples of Hoa Binh province on show
will include citrus fruits, vegetables, mountain peanut (Plukenetia Volubilis
L.), Solanum trilobatum tea, fish farmed in the Da River’s reservoir and
chickens farmed on hills, which are all high-quality products with food safety,
VietGAP, GlobalGAP and "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) certificates.
At the meeting, officials noted the week is an
important event for popularising local products and promoting investment, so it
must introduce truly typical products of the province. The participating units
also have to ensure the supply and preservation of goods during the week.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s
Committee Nguyen Van Dung said the event is an occasion to promote agricultural
specialties of Hoa Binh and help consumers access safe and high-quality
products of the province. Therefore, preparations must be made thoroughly.
Additionally, businesses and cooperatives will
also have a chance to introduce their potential, strengths and key products;
form connections between producers and distributors; seek contracts; and
transfer technology, he noted.
The official also assigned the provincial
Department of Public Security to coordinate with its Hanoi peer to ensure security, order, traffic
safety and fire prevention during the week. Meanwhile, the Hoa Binh Cooperative
Alliance needs to fine-tune the detailed organisation plan to submit it to the
Standing Board of the provincial Party Committee for decision. It is also
necessary to step up communications about the week on local and central media
agencies.
The event is scheduled to take place at the
Saigon Co.op network in Hanoi
from December 7 to 13./.
In Lac Thuy district, communes have been succeeded in promoting their One Commune-One Product (OCOP) products while others are still struggling to position their typical farming products in market. Some communes in the district still fail to have their products met OCOP programme’s requirements, while others have seen their certifications expired.
The inspectorate agency of Hoa Binh province has issued Official Dispatch No. 1090/TTr-PCTN to provincial departments, agencies, localities, business associations, enterprises, and investors regarding measures to improve informal component indexes of the Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI).
Hoa Binh is taking concrete steps to improve its investment environment, with a strong focus on supporting businesses, settling obstacles for strategic investors, and creating opportunities for robust development in the coming years.
