(HBO) – The Hoa Binh FTT Farm Produce Store has officially opened at the Phuong Lam market in Hoa Binh at the end of July. This is the first store supplied by a dedicated collaborative group of the local Department for Cultivation & Plant Protection.

Hoa Binh FTT Farm Produce Store attracts large number of
customers on opening day.
On-sale vegetables, tubers and fruits of different types were
carefully selected from organic or VietGap certificated farms in the districts
of Luong Son, Lac Thuy, Tan Lac and Kim Boi.
All products have been labeled for food safety with clear
origins.
The opening of the store has become a draw to the local
consumers, with all items sold off within the first week of operation. Prices
