Customers with bills of VNĐ300,000 and more can win attractive lucky-draw prizes like a Honda Air Blade, a Saigon Co.op 30th anniversary logo made from one tael of gold, Samsung TV 4k 49 inch and others.

In another matter, Saigon Co.op’s retail systems, including Co.opmart, Co.opXtra, Co.op Food and Co.op Smiles, are trialing the use of fresh banana leaves instead of plastic film to pack fruits and vegetables to contribute to environmental protection.

Co.opmart Phan Thiết, Tây Ninh, Quy Nhơn, Tam Kỳ and some Co.opmart and Co.op Food in HCM City are among the stores packing fruits and vegetables with banana leaves. The use of banana leaves will be gradually expanded at all of the retailer’s stores nationwide.

The Co.opmart supermarket system was the first retailer in Việt Nam to replace plastic bags with eco-friendly biodegradable plastic bags, beginning in March 2011. — VNS
