Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Do Thang Hai said: “We expect that the event and other stimulus programs will raise the values of Vietnamese products and brands, promote domestic consumption, and boost the campaign ‘Vietnamese people prioritize Vietnamese products’ and the ‘Domestic Consumption Promotion’ program.”

Nguyen Thi Phuong, Deputy General Director of Central Retail, the organizer of the event, said: “The Made in Vietnam – Vietnamese quintessence” Week is designed to accompany businesses to overcome the difficult period and promote Vietnam’s internal strength.
