On the evening of June 30, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee announced and awarded decisions for OCOP products (One Commune One Product program) in Ho Chi Minh City in 2023.
Accordingly, Ho Chi Minh City awarded the decision to recognize 43 more OCOP products of 6 entities that meet 4-star standards. Bird's nest products in Can Gio account for half with 22 products announced.
Representative of Can Gio Island Bird Nest Investment Trading Service Company Limited (a company with 17 newly certified bird nest products), Ms. Phan Ngoc Dieu said that 100% of the company's bird nests are clean bird nests from the world biosphere reserve in Ho Chi Minh City. The company's bird nests are selected from long-standing, reputable bird nest farms in the locality.
According to Ms. Dieu, to ensure product quality, the unit has cooperated with Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade to develop more high-quality, delicious and nutritious bird's nest products.
"After the company's bird's nest products were recognized as achieving 4-star OCOP, the brand became more widely known, not only helping to elevate the brand but also making Can Gio land more famous," Ms. Dieu happily shared.
Meanwhile, Mr. Tran Dang Dat - founder of Dat Butter Company Limited - said that up to now, the company has 7 products achieving 4-star OCOP for nut butter.
"Being recognized as a 4-star OCOP helps businesses increase the value of domestic products, helping Vietnamese consumers have more safe and nutritious choices," said Mr. Dat.
Sharing the reason for choosing to develop nut butters, Mr. Dat said that in 2017, the market was mainly imported butter products, there were no butter products produced by Vietnamese people on a professional scale and sold on supermarket shelves.
"Fortunately, foreign consumers have accepted this peanut butter product. We hope to create a change in the market with pure Vietnamese peanut butter in the future," Mr. Dat shared.
Mr. Dinh Minh Hiep, Director of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Ho Chi Minh City, affirmed that the "One Commune One Product" program is important for socio-economic development.
The implementation of the program will help increase income, create more jobs, contribute to poverty reduction, and improve people's material and spiritual life.
"To date, the city has recognized 191 OCOP products from 67 entities. Of these, 79 products meet 4-star standards and 112 products meet 3-star standards," said Mr. Hiep.
