Developing clean agricultural products stores

Many utilities

Busy life and the desire to choose safe foods for the family, in the past 3 years, Ms. Nguyen Mai Phuong, Y La ward ( Tuyen Quang city) has chosen to shop at clean agricultural products stores. Ms. Phuong said: “Before, I often bought food at the market near my house, however, the quality and origin of the products were unclear, so I was worried. Since there are safe food stores in the province, I have changed my shopping habits. At these stores, the products are diverse, from vegetables, tubers, meat, fish, dried products, processed foods, so buying and selling is convenient. Compared to the market, the agricultural products here are more expensive, but I still accept it, because the goods have clear origins and have traceability stamps.”

Customers trust and choose to buy products at the product distribution store of Tam Huong Agricultural and Service Cooperative.

Grasping the consumer needs of the people, Sang Nhung Green Agricultural Products Store has introduced and sold specialty products, OCOP in Tuyen Quang city. Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc, Store Manager said: “To meet the needs of clean and safe food of consumers, we focus on foods of origin, regional specialties. In addition to the food source from the livestock and farming unit, we have signed contracts to purchase products of many cooperatives in and outside the province. On average, the 2 stores consume about 2 tons of agricultural products and products of all kinds every day. Many products are chosen by customers such as: Huong Rung honey of Phong Tho Beekeeping Cooperative, An Khang Commune (Tuyen Quang City), green-heart black bean tea bags (Chiem Hoa), Hong Thai Shan Tuyet tea (Na Hang) to fresh products, pre-processed products".

The store introducing and providing clean agricultural products Goldmart Son Duong, Co Quan residential group, Son Duong town has always been a trusted address for local people for the past 6 years. Mr. Nguyen Tien Lam, the store owner said: "We choose cooperatives and enterprises in the province to produce products according to VietGAP standards. Vegetables, tubers and fruits are produced according to the local safe vegetable model, have traceability stamps, and are imported daily to ensure freshness when reaching customers."

Promote links

In recent times, localities have focused on building a safe, closed food supply chain from production to consumption, ensuring control of product origin and quality. In addition to the famous tea product, key products have been developed such as: Thuat Yen dry noodles of Thuat Yen Agricultural Production Service Cooperative (Tuyen Quang City); Truong Thinh peanut oil, Hop Hoa Solanum procumbens tea (Son Duong); Phong Tho honey (Tuyen Quang City); tea bag products of Binh Minh Organic Agricultural Products Cooperative, Tu Quan Commune (Yen Son)...

Clean agricultural product stores in the province are all granted certificates of food safety qualified facilities. Enterprises and production facilities participating in the supply of products at agricultural product stores are all trained in knowledge of safe food production and trading, are registered for trademarks, products have logos, eye-catching packaging...

Tam Huong Agricultural and Service Cooperative is one of the leading cooperatives in linking with farmers, from production to product consumption. The cooperative has successfully built a closed safe food production model from farming to processing. Currently, the cooperative has 3 stores introducing and selling more than 400 products which are typical agricultural products of the localities. Mr. Nguyen Dinh Tam, Director of the cooperative said: "Since its establishment, we have implemented a chain of links with cooperatives and many households in the province, bringing efficiency and economic benefits. During the implementation process, we have a contract to link and consume output products for farmers. Thanks to that, the cooperative always maintains a guaranteed source of goods at 3 product introduction stores and partners inside and outside the province".
