Currently, Z121 factory is listing prices that have not changed much compared to previous years. Specifically, the price of D16x25 flashing pellet spraying rack (new label 2024) is 330,000 VND/rack, D16x25 flower spraying rack (new label 2024) is 360,000 VND/rack, D16x25 pellet spraying rack (manufactured in 2024) is 350,000 VND/rack.
However, according to the Ministry of National Defense's research on the fireworks trading market on social media platforms, the situation of price chaos and selling at prices other than the listed price is widespread. Accordingly, the selling price on the internet is pushed up by a difference of about 55,000-70,000 VND/set compared to the listed price.
