VTV.vn - The Lunar New Year is only 2 months away. To prepare for the nation’s biggest holiday, Ho Chi Minh City is taking steps to monitor food quality and safety alongside its price stabilization program.

The city is giving priority to products that meet VietGap standards in order to put consumers at ease. The number of firms participating in the city’s price stabilization program increased to 30% this year.

The Ho Chi Minh Ministry of Industry and Trade has been developing a safe food chain system in line with VietGap standards for nearly 50 products. Such products  are required to have the logo of the price stabilization program to help consumers recognize them more easily.
