The forum creates a space to promote products, seek partners and expand consumption markets. In that vibrant picture, Thai Nguyen booth impressed with many typical OCOP products, clearly demonstrating the diversity, quality and potential for developing local agricultural trade.

Right at the forum, a number of initial cooperation contracts were signed, and hundreds of individual customers left their contact information, expressing their desire to continue ordering after the event.

Ms. Dao Thi Thuc, Director of Nhat Thuc Tea Cooperative (Dong Hy commune), said: Participating in the forum helps the cooperative reach new customers, expand consumption channels, and is also an opportunity to learn how to organize booths and promote brands more professionally.

From a consumer perspective, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Viet, Tan Tien commune ( Ca Mau province), commented: Thai Nguyen tea products are of good quality and are displayed attractively. I have bought them to try and will continue to use them in the future.

Currently , Thai Nguyen has more than 500 OCOP products with 3 stars or more, clearly reflecting the creativity and efforts of cooperatives, businesses and production households in the area.

Mr. Nguyen My Hai, Deputy Director of the Department of Agriculture and Environment , emphasized: With the diversity and large number of certified products, Thai Nguyen aims to make the most of trade promotion forums. The goal is not only to promote tea and agricultural products, but also to build a chain of links and sustainable consumption cooperation, thereby increasing production value and people's income.

To achieve the above results, the units in the province have had close coordination. The Department of Agriculture and Environment took the lead in advising and coordinating with the Department of Industry and Trade, the Provincial Cooperative Union and local cooperatives and enterprises to make careful preparations. Thanks to that, the Thai Nguyen booth at the forum was organized on a large scale, methodically, creating its own mark.

Evaluating Thai Nguyen's participation, Mr. Nguyen Minh Tien, Director of the Center for Agricultural Trade Promotion (Ministry of Agriculture and Environment), commented: Thai Nguyen's booth was professionally organized, with strong identity, contributing to affirming the increasingly solid position of the province's OCOP products in the market.

Leaders of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, along with representatives of An Giang province, highly appreciated the quality of agricultural products and the active participation of Thai Nguyen through many trade promotion events in the Southern region.

Previous participation in OCOP events and fairs inside and outside the province has created an important foundation, helping Thai Nguyen confidently expand its market. This forum has become a new highlight, extending the strategy of promoting, building and developing the province's OCOP brand.

In the coming time, Thai Nguyen will continue to promote trade, expand cooperation with supermarket systems, e-commerce platforms and domestic distribution channels, and prepare conditions to penetrate the international market. With a solid foundation and clear orientation, Thai Nguyen OCOP products are affirming their position in the domestic market and opening up prospects to reach out and spread widely throughout the world.
