Veteran Nguyen Van Kiet in Dien Tho commune is a typical example in the movement of veterans who do good business in Dien Ban town. Having trained in the military environment (from 1992 - 1994), in 1995, returning to his hometown, Mr. Kiet started doing business with a straw mushroom production model.
For nearly 30 years, with the passion and strong will of Uncle Ho's soldier, veteran Nguyen Van Kiet has achieved many successes in production and business.
He has been awarded many certificates of merit in labor production by the President, Prime Minister, Central Committee of Vietnam Fatherland Front, Central Committee of Vietnam Veterans Association...
In 2002, from a small-scale straw mushroom production model, Mr. Kiet boldly rented land and invested in an aquaculture farm combined with raising chickens, cows, etc. on an area of 1.5 hectares. In 2016, he combined with a number of individuals to establish Dien Ban Agricultural Seed Joint Stock Company. In which, Mr. Kiet is known as one of the two "fathers" of the famous 3-star OCOP product - Phong Thu Rice.
At its peak, his farm raised nearly 100,000 chickens, more than 200 cows, and freshwater fish ponds that sold 25-30 tons of various types of fish each season. Currently, Mr. Kiet's farm generates an average annual revenue of more than 1 billion VND, with a profit of 200-300 million VND/year.
On the road to economic development, Mr. Kiet encountered many challenges and failures, and at times thought he would have to give up. For example, the influenza A (H5N1) outbreak in 2004 that destroyed the entire chicken farm; or the fire at the agricultural product purchasing factory just one year ago...
“With passion, perseverance and self-belief, especially thanks to being trained in the military environment, I have the courage to overcome difficulties and challenges,” said Mr. Kiet.
