The OCOP program has been implemented in the province since 2018. After 3 years of implementation, the Provincial People's Committee has decided to recognize a total of 26 provincial OCOP products with 3 stars or more. The average total revenue of these 26 products is 7.5 billion VND/year, up 15% and the average profit is 700 million VND/year, up 10% compared to before participating in the program.
According to the approved plan, the total budget for the implementation of this year's OCOP program is 2.71 billion VND, 2.1 billion VND of which is from the provincial budget, the rest is the reciprocal capital of the participants. This resource is used to implement OCOP cycles in accordance with regulations such as propaganda, registration of ideas, receipt and implementation of business plans, organization of product evaluation, etc. At the same time, some participants will be supported to standardize products with such contents as building trademarks, geographical indications, improving packaging designs... The total provincial budget to support participants is 610 million VND.
In the context of the complicated situation of the Covid-19 epidemic, which greatly affects the implementation of the OCOP program, it requires more efforts from departments, sectors and localities, especially participants to achieve the goals set by the province in this year's OCOP program plan.
