The night market is bustling.
As the peak tourist season approaches, the number of visitors to Da Nang increases significantly, leading to a bustling atmosphere of shopping and experiences at the tourist markets in the area.
Located east of the Dragon Bridge, Son Tra Night Market (An Hai Ward) is one of the top destinations for tourists visiting Da Nang. On average, the market welcomes 5,000-6,000 visitors each night, and this number can reach tens of thousands during peak periods such as holidays and events.
Ms. Ho Thi Chin (a resident of Thanh Khe ward and a souvenir vendor at Son Tra night market) said that during peak season, the number of domestic and international tourists increases significantly. Therefore, business owners are more conscious of maintaining the image of the destination by publicly displaying prices, selling at the correct price, ensuring product quality, and providing friendly and courteous service.
The market management board regularly reminds and inspects compliance with regulations on business practices, product origin, and stall hygiene. This helps traders raise their awareness, contributing to a civilized shopping environment and creating a sense of security and goodwill for tourists visiting Da Nang.
"Having traded at the market for many years, we understand that the reputation of our goods, reasonable prices, and a welcoming and friendly attitude are crucial for creating a good impression on tourists. Therefore, vendors at the market always strictly adhere to regulations on civilized commerce to ensure customer satisfaction," shared Mrs. Chin.
Strengthen management and control.
Besides the proactive approach and awareness of small traders, the management boards of markets serving tourists in Da Nang have also implemented many management and control solutions to ensure civilized trade and food safety during the peak tourist season.
Mr. Tran Van Dung, Deputy Head of the Han Market Management Board, said that the Da Nang Market Management and Development Company and the Management Board have developed a plan to implement measures to ensure security, order, and food safety.
Every day, the management board disseminates information and reminds traders to arrange their goods neatly, not encroaching on walkways, ensuring unobstructed access for tourists; at the same time, they check the origin and labels of goods and enforce the code of conduct in business.
“The market management board has instructed, reminded, and inspected business households to strictly comply with regulations on food safety, especially regarding goods with clear origins and expiration dates. The market management board will strictly handle any traders who violate the regulations and affect the image and reputation of the market,” Mr. Dung said.
According to the Da Nang City Market Management Department, during peak tourist season, the number of tourists increases sharply, leading to increased demand for shopping and goods and services, creating favorable conditions for vibrant commercial activities.
However, this is also a time when there is a potential risk of commercial fraud such as: trading in counterfeit goods, goods of unknown origin, violations of food safety regulations, failure to display prices or unreasonable price increases, etc., affecting consumer rights as well as the image of local tourism.
The Sub-Department has directed its subordinate market management teams to proactively implement many synchronized solutions to strengthen market inspection and control before and during the peak tourist season, contributing to market stability, protecting consumer rights, and building a civilized and healthy business environment.
Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen local management, promptly detect signs of violations for inspection and handling according to regulations; and promote public awareness campaigns to prevent market price fluctuations and abnormalities.
Simultaneously, we will closely coordinate with relevant functional forces in inter-agency inspections, contributing to improving the effectiveness of state management in the field of commerce; building trust and a positive impression for tourists visiting and vacationing in Da Nang.
