Lam Dong expands trade connections with Dong Thap and Ca Mau

Attending the trade connection conferences in the two southern provinces were leaders of the Lam Dong Department of Industry and Trade, the Industrial Promotion Center, the Provincial Business Association, and nearly 30 enterprises and production facilities operating in agricultural and seafood processing, food, and forestry and medicinal products.
Through this activity, Lam Dong aims to enhance trade connections, seek partners, and establish consumption linkages for regional specialty products, while building cooperative business relationships between local enterprises and businesses in Dong Thap and Ca Mau provinces.

Industrial producers in Lam Dong had the opportunity to introduce their production capacity and supply capability, as well as gain a better understanding of consumer demand in markets outside the province. This particularly applied to local advantageous products such as bottled traditional fish sauce, dried seafood, dried vegetables and fruits, dragon fruit products, macadamia nuts, coffee, artichoke, tea, bird nest, and agarwood.

Through the conferences, the Lam Dong Department of Industry and Trade also organized the display and introduction of dozens of products from enterprises and production facilities to market them to distributors in Dong Thap and Ca Mau provinces. Most local products have achieved 4-star OCOP certification, as well as recognition as representative rural industrial products at the provincial, regional and national levels.

Speaking at the trade promotion and business-matching conference, Cao Thi Thanh, Deputy Director of the Lam Dong Department of Industry and Trade, stated that this was an opportunity for the locality to promote high-quality products that meet certification standards and are authorised to carry certification marks, bringing them closer to consumers. At the same time, it enhances the responsibility of enterprises and entrepreneurs in production, business, product distribution, and supply-demand connection, contributing to economic growth and development in the localities.

On this occasion, several enterprises, cooperatives, and distributors from the three provinces signed memorandums of understanding to expand product distribution channels, including 12 in Dong Thap and 16 in Ca Mau.
