On the morning of February 12, Deputy Secretary of the Hai Phong City Party Committee and Chairman of the Hai Phong People’s Council Le Van Hieu inspected commodity markets serving the upcoming Lunar New Year (Tet).

Accompanying the delegation were leaders of Hai Phong City People’s Council, along with representatives of relevant departments and agencies.

The delegation examined business operations, goods reserves, and food safety measures at Phu Loc Market (Tue Tinh Commune), GO! Hai Duong Supermarket, Hoang Nam Phat Cooperative (Gia Loc Commune), and the Hoang Thi Thao An traditional pork sausage (gio cha) production facility (Phu Thai Commune).

After reviewing reports from local authorities and units and conducting field inspections, Chairman Le Van Hieu highly appreciated the proactive efforts of sectors, localities, and businesses in preparing supply sources, stabilizing prices, and ensuring sufficient goods reserves to meet rising consumer demand before, during, and after the Tet holiday.

Emphasizing the need to maintain market stability, he requested that departments, agencies, and localities continue strictly implementing the city’s directives on quality control, product traceability, and food safety, while strengthening measures to prevent trade fraud, counterfeit goods, and substandard products. He also called for enhanced inspection and supervision to strictly handle violations, thereby protecting consumer rights and maintaining a healthy business environment.

At the same time, attention should be paid to ensuring public security and fire safety at markets, supermarkets, and production and trading facilities handling large volumes of goods.
