All products do not contain active ingredients used as pesticides, and do not have the effect of protecting plants from pests, killing weeds, or killing insects.

It is known that business activities take place mainly on social networks. Since the end of 2024, Vinh has sold 10.7 thousand orders to customers in many provinces and cities across the country. Revenue is estimated at more than 5 billion VND.

Currently, the Investigation Police Agency of Bac Giang Provincial Police is continuing to investigate and expand the case to handle related subjects according to the law.
