YBO - Eight businesses and cooperatives in Yen Bai province introduced their farm produce and food such as tea, cinnamon and paper products, and cassava powder to Japanese firms at a Vietnam – Japan trade teleconference on June 2.

Yen Bai’s enterprises participate in the conference

The Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency under the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Vietnamese Embassy in Japan co-organised the event to promote Vietnam’s farm produce and food.

At the conference, the enterprises were informed about the Japanese market, its import requirements, and consumers' taste along with ways to access the market.

More than 70,000ha of cinnamon in Yen Bai also provide 20,000 tonnes of dried cinnamon each year.

Yen Bai’s cassava powder, which has high quality and meets international standards, has been exported to Japan, Taiwan (China) and the Republic of Korea.

The conference offered a good opportunity for enterprises in Yen Bai to promote the export of agricultural products and food to Japan.
