Bat Xat elevates OCOP products

At the end of 2024, Ms. Leo Thi Thuy's production facility in Village 3, Ban Vuoc Commune, Bat Xat District had 4 dried meat products recognized as OCOP star. Thanks to that, the facility's sales volume has also increased sharply. Currently, the facility supplies more than 100 kg of various types of dried meat to the market every day, creating jobs for 10 ethnic minority women in the locality. To achieve this result, from the selection of raw materials to the processing stages, all have been invested in, especially ensuring food hygiene and safety.

Ms. Thuy said: "I have plans to further develop the production facility. To maintain 3-star OCOP, I have to try harder, from standard materials, I will have good products."

Dried meat products at Ms. Leo Thi Thuy's production facility have achieved OCOP stars, thereby helping to increase consumption.

Thanh Son Cooperative, a unit specializing in producing vermicelli, is currently maintaining 2 3-star OCOP products. The products have good quality, are consumed conveniently not only in the province but also exported to many provinces and cities across the country, solving the output for the large raw material area. In 2024, the cooperative's revenue will reach more than 10 billion VND.
