Summary: | In Vietnam, food safety is of great and
increasing importance to consumers and policymakers alike.
The Government of Vietnam requested the World Bank and other
development partners for assistance in assessing food safety
risks an din providing policy recommendations on how to
improve food safety risk management. To this end, a series
of activities, including a literature review, field visits,
round-table discussions and interviews with experts and
consultations were held between January and July 2016. While
food safety was broadly addressed, the emphasis of this
review was on domestic urban markets with a special focus on
pork and leafy vegetable value chains supplying Ha Noi and H
Chi Minh City. This report presents the key findings to help
identify priorities and practical solutions to address foo safety. |
