The Hanoi Food Safety and Hygiene Department, in coordination with Hoan Kiem district, organized an assessment of food safety knowledge for 200 food producers and businesses.

As a result, 167 out of 200 people (83.5%) were assessed as having knowledge of food safety; two training courses were organized for business owners and processing staff of 105 establishments around school gates in Trang Tien and Hang Trong wards; and four direct awareness campaigns were conducted for 240 food business owners and consumers.
