Pa Co
market in Mai Chau provides a wide range of products, satisfying the needs of
people in mountainous areas.
Though Xam Khoe market in the commune of
the same name only opens once a week on Saturday, people in the commune and
surrounding areas never face grocery shortage.
Similarly, in the remote and mountainous communes
of Hang Kia, Pa Co, Son Thuy, Tan Thanh and Cun Pheo, local residents could
access diverse products.
The local markets open one day each week. The
market in Mai Chau town opens regularly, while a traditional market for Mai
Chau area is held every Sunday. In addition, there is a network of grocery stores
operated by local people across the district.
Head of Mai Chau district’s Economy and
Infrastructure Division Nguyen Van Dung noted that trade and services in the
district have developed extensively in recent years, with many local shops
opened in communes and hamlets. Many traders and households are willing to deliver
products to hamlets and villages to serve more residents.
The district is home to 10 markets - Mai
Hich, Xam Khoe, Co Luong, Pa Co, Phuc San, Tan Mai, Tan Dan, Noong Luong, Bao
La and Mai Chau. There are also 1,254 trade and services establishments across
the district.
State management and market surveillance
agencies conduct regular inspections of operations of markets and shops.

origins has significantly reduced, with most goods on the market having good quality,
meeting consumers’ demand and taste.
In 2019, retail sales and service revenues in
the district surpassed 1 trillion VND (42.57 million USD). The figure of the
