This is a product line that has just been certified with 4-star OCOP at a provincial level in 2021.

Despite facing competition with imported goods, consumers now have a preference in consuming Vietnamese goods and specialties. Therefore, I still believe that my product will be warmly welcomed by the domestic markets.” By taking advantage of the abundant raw material area of Duc Linh district, cashew nuts contains higher amount of protein and nutritional substance than most candies from other nuts, mixed cashew nut candy was born in 2014. Processed products initially affirm the typical brand of Duc Linh district through the processing and implementation of a quality standard cashew link chain with farmers in the local raw material area.

OCOP products of the province are very diverse, ensuring quality and food safety.
