Regional specialty products week returns to HCM City after 2023 success

Some 320 businesses and cooperatives from 32 provinces and cities are showcasing their unique products at the 2024 Week of OCOP Products, Regional Specialty Products, and Agricultural Production, Preservation, and Processing Technologies that opened in HCM City on November 6.

On show are 1,000 products, including products made under One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme and regional specialities and agricultural production, processing and preservation technologies.

They include 21 OCOP products with a full five-star rating and 638 with 3-4 stars.

Võ Văn Hoan, deputy chairman of the HCM City People’s Commitee, told the opening ceremony that the event aims to support enterprises and cooperatives in promoting OCOP products and regional specialties to consumers and distributors in the city and facilitate the transfer of advanced technologies in the agricultural sector.

It is also part of the socio-economic cooperation programme between the city and other localities, he said.

The event follows the resounding success of the inaugural edition last year, where more than 80 per cent of the products on display sold out in three days, according to the HCM City Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, one of the event’s organisers.

It has garnered strong participation from localities across the country with which the city has collaborative programmes this year, it said.

Besides, businesses from northern provinces of Lào Cai and Quảng Ninh, which have no socio-economic agreements with the city, are also participating.

To run until November 10, it also features a dedicated area with 50 booths for exhibiting agricultural, forestry and fishery processing technologies, showcasing smart applications, biotechnology, agricultural varieties, and machinery for urban farming.

Another highlight is the “Mega Live” programme that assist businesses and co-operatives with opening online stores and introducing their products via live streaming with renowned KOLs to reach a diverse range of consumers.

The expo is being held at the Lê Thị Riêng Cultural Park in District 10.
