Destruction of 139,000 USD Worth of Counterfeit Goods in Ho Chi Minh City
Vietnam's market authorities destroy over 37 billion dong worth of counterfeit and unsafe goods in Ho Chi Minh City.

According to recent reports from Vietnamese media, the market management authorities in Ho Chi Minh City have destroyed goods related to 62 administrative penalties issued by the 3rd team of the Market Management Bureau and the Ho Chi Minh City Market Management Bureau at the factory of the Green Environment Company in Binh Chanh district, Vietnam.

 

The total value of these goods exceeds 3.7 billion Vietnamese dong (approximately 1 million yuan, 139,000 USD), including 21,320 items of counterfeit, untraceable, and potentially harmful products imported from overseas that do not guarantee consumer health, such as clothing, food, cosmetics, shoes, e-cigarettes, hookahs, herbal medicines, etc.

 

The destruction process fully complies with environmental requirements, with the Ho Chi Minh City Market Management Authority (QLTT) and other relevant units closely monitoring the process.

 

At the same time, the processes of inspection, control, and administrative penalties, as well as supervision actions to destroy compensation goods, are part of the routine work of the Ho Chi Minh City Market Management Department. This is mainly to combat counterfeit, smuggling, unknown origin, and low-quality goods in their jurisdiction. It also ensures that all procedures and processes are carried out in accordance with regulations.
