The first One Commune One Product (OCOP) fair, themed “Quang Ninh Trademark – Convergence and Pervasion”, opened on April 26th, in the northern province of Quang Ninh.
OCOP attracted nearly 200 kiosks, of which, 100 kiosks were displayed by Quang Ninh’s enterprises with more than 120 typical products and products groups from 14 districts, towns and cities in the province.
The event is part of the 2015 Ha Long – Quang Ninh tourism week with the aim of speeding up promotion on the land, people and abundant produce of the province as well as intensifying cooperative relationships with other provinces and cities nationwide.
Deputy Chairman of the Quang Ninh provincial People’s Committee, Dang Huy Hau, said in his opening speech that the fair was an important event because it was a forum and bridge between producers and customers.
At the fair, customers have the opportunity to inspect and purchase high-quality products with clear origins.
