The participation of enterprises has helped Vietnamese goods become more and more widely known. From familiarity and closeness, it has become trust; many consumers choose Vietnamese goods as number 1 in their personal and family shopping baskets.
This shows that consumer awareness has changed, not only is it a movement for Vietnamese people to prioritize using Vietnamese products, but now Vietnamese products have become an indispensable choice for Vietnamese consumers.
