After overcoming the consequences of the flood, two cinnamon essential oil processing factories of Son Hai Agricultural Products Processing Export Company located in Vinh Yen and Tan Duong communes have resumed operations. This year, the cinnamon consumption market has encountered many difficulties, Son Hai's partners have limited orders, leading to lower export volume than the same period last year, and large inventories of cinnamon essential oil products. However, the Company still strives to maintain production, purchase cinnamon branches and leaves for local people at reasonable prices so that people can feel secure in sticking with cinnamon trees.
“The market for cinnamon essential oil products in the world has many fluctuations that have affected the consumption of the Company's products. However, the Company always accompanies the people of Bao Yen cinnamon area, because only when farmers feel secure in growing cinnamon trees will we have a stable source of raw materials for production,” affirmed Mr. Bui Ngoc San, Director of Son Hai Agricultural Products Processing and Export Company.
