Coming to the fruit and vegetable counter of Co.opmart Thang Loi supermarket (Tay Thanh ward), Ms. To Thi Bich chose to wrap green vegetables with the "green tick of responsibility" label. She shared: "Since I learned that the supermarket sells labeled products, I have prioritized this choice. Because these are products whose quality is guaranteed by the supplier and confirmed by the distributor."

Ms. Vo Thi Bich Thuy, Senior Product Manager, Sales Department ( Saigon Co.op ) said that by the end of July 2025, Saigon Co.op had 99 suppliers participating in the "green tick of responsibility" with more than 1,500 products available in Saigon Co.op's distribution system in Ho Chi Minh City.

“Sales of products with the “blue tick of responsibility” label in July 2025 increased by over 40% over the same period. This proves that consumers are very interested and confident in choosing to buy products with this label. This is also a way to increase the identification factor of safe and quality products and goods, helping consumers choose products and goods more easily,” said Ms. Vo Thi Bich Thuy.
