Up to 75% of the consumers have recommended family members andfriends to buy locally-made products.
Le Viet Nga, Vice Director of the MoIT’s Department ofDomestic Market, affirmed that the campaign to encourage Vietnamese toprioritise the use of Vietnamese commodities has helped change domesticconsumers and businesses’ awareness of made-in-Vietnam products.

In order to further spread the campaign, the MoIT has organiseda wide range of trade promotion activities and encouraged the application ofe-commerce in shopping activities.
