Speaking at the conference, Vice Chairman of the City People's Committee Tran Chi Cuong acknowledged and highly appreciated the efforts and dedication of the entities, production facilities, and units in perfecting and improving the quality to meet the OCOP classification criteria, especially those entities participating in upgrading their products from 3 stars to 4 stars.
