HCM City (VNS/VNA) - Central Retail Vietnam's sourcing team has met with businesses and suppliers in the southeast to discuss cooperation opportunities at a trade promotion conference between Ho Chi Minh City and its neighbours in Binh Phuoc province last week.

Representatives of the retailer’s fast-moving consumer goods and fresh food divisions apprised their interlocutors about their purchasing processes, documentation, packing, and labelling requirements.

The meeting should make it easier for businesses and cooperatives to bring their products into Central Retail’s Go! and Big C supermarket chains, they added.

Central Retail struck deals with six suppliers in the southeast region: VINAHE Co., Ltd (roasted cashewnuts), Nham Nhung production establishment (coffee, cashewnuts), Ha Mỵ JSC (cashewnuts), Co Co Vietnam Food JSC (coconut jelly, aloe vera-based products), La Media establishment (melon), Kim Long Hi-tech Cooperative (melon, longan and pineapple).

The southeastern region consists of Ba Ria – Vung Tau, Binh Phuoc, Binh Duong, Dong Nai, and Tay Ninh provinces and HCM City./.
