This move aims to achieve strict control, from the initial stage of cultivation, husbandry, harvesting, catching, exploitation to slaughtering, processing and retailing, to ensure clean food for customers.

The deal focused on three main contents: building and developing a supply chain of safe agricultural and fishery products; supporting and creating favourable conditions for Binh Thuan’s production establishments to consume in Ho Chi Minh city; and cooperating in supervising safe agricultural and fishery products.

Ms. Pham Khanh Phong Lan, Head of the Food Safety Management Board, said that ensuring the quality of goods at the source is very important and, in combination with prestigious distributors, the widespread consumption system would improve the efficiency of safe food chain.

Mr. Mai Kieu, Director of the Binh Thuan provincial Department of Agricultural and Rural Development, said the province now meets difficulties in linking supply with consumption. Therefore, the cooperation is very significant. Binh Thuan is striving to have at least 505 agricultural and fishery products controlled for food safety by 2020./.
