The municipal People's Committee assigned the Hanoi Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to guide the People's Committees of districts, townships and entities with the OCOP products to use and print OCOP trademarks and star ratings on certified product packaging according to regulations.
In addition, the municipal People's Committee coordinated with relevant departments and sectors to hold periodical inspections to handle violations.
The classification results are valid for three years from the date of signing the decision.
The OCOP program has contributed to changing the practices of rural communities, paving the way for new manufacturing models and trade of traditional goods that are of local advantages.
Approved in Prime Minister’s Decision No.490/QD-TTg on May 7, 2018, it encompasses three primary goals: developing forms of organized production and business, changing the economic structure to improve incomes, and advancing agriculture and production in rural areas.
After more than five years of implementation, Vietnam now has more than 10,300 OCOP products in all 63 provinces and cities.
Among these products, more than 67% have achieved three-star status, while over 30% have been awarded four stars, and nearly 1% have the potential to achieve a five-star recognition.
In addition, over 5,360 businesses are joining the OCOP program, of which over 38% are cooperatives, more than 24% are enterprises, and nearly 35% being production or business households.
