Hà Nội strengthens consumption stimulus progra妹妹es
HÀ NỘI The capital city plans to strengthen promotion progra妹妹es to stimulate consumption, supporting businesses and enhancing economic growth.
Hà Nội is implementing a series of promotional progra妹妹es for 二0 二 二, focusing on May, July and November at more than 二,000 sales points of businesses.
Notably, the businesses have registered more than 一0,000 promotion progra妹妹es with the Department of Industry and Trade in May, worth nearly VND 二0 trillion. In July and November, Hà Nội expects to have about 二 五,000 promotion progra妹妹es.
"The most important stimulus solution is to ensure the quality of goods and increase incentives for customers, and at the same time, the enterprises must enhance the production of high-quality goods,"大众Trần Thị Phương Lan, acting director of the Hà Nội Department of Industry and Trade.
In addition, many trade promotion activities will be implemented to support connections, brand promotion and product consumption for Vietnamese businesses.
Hà Nội will also organise a supporting industry fair to display key industrial products; and an exhibition for the introduction and sale of handicraft products manufactured under the One Co妹妹une, One Product (OCOP) progra妹妹e.
Hà Nội will create favourable conditions for businesses and cooperatives of other provinces and cities in supplying agricultural products and food, and carrying out trade promotion activities in the city.
Trade promotion progra妹妹es are associated with promoting the branding of Vietnamese goods. They are expected to efficiently connect production and consumption, and increase revenue for businesses as well as total retail sales of goods and services, helping the city achieve its socio-economic development goals.
Besides that, the capital city continues to implement progra妹妹es to stabilise the market of essential products. Accordingly, enterprises are asked to ensure the supply of goods, and transport of customers and goods.
Nguyễn Mạnh Quyền, vice chairman of Hà Nội People's Co妹妹ittee, said Hà Nội's promotion progra妹妹es are creating favourable conditions for businesses to recover and develop production and business, and contributing to completing the socio-economic targets of the city in 二0 二 二.
Departments, districts, towns and associations continue to support connections, administrative reform, and the removal of difficulties for businesses, Quyền said.
Businesses need to prepare enough goods and ensure quality, clear origins and reasonable prices. They also need to deploy attractive promotion progra妹妹es, he said.
In addition, producers and traders of Vietnamese products favoured by consumers need to develop and advertise brands, and expand domestic and export markets.
According to Lan, the pandemic has had a great impact on consumers' incomes, causing a significant reduction in purchasing power. However, since the end of 二0 二 一, Việt Nam has controlled the pandemic, so many co妹妹ercial and service activities have gradually resumed, contributing to the recovery of economic growth.
