2015 is the 15th year that Vietnam has joined GPEA. Up to now, 37 Vietnamese businesses have achieved this international award.
General Director of the ministry’s Directorate for Standards, Metrology and Quality Tran Van Vinh said the national quality award is an annual award with the aim to recognise businesses that have achieved excellent performances and outstanding achievements in innovating, improving quality and contributing to the country’s productivity and quality movement.
This is a chance for enterprises to assess and perfect themselves in improving product quality and service, enhancing competitive capacity and promoting their trademark in domestic and foreign markets, especially in the context that Vietnam has signed many free trade agreements, the Trans-Pacific Partnership and joined the ASEAN Economic Community, he said.
The awarded firms are judged on seven criteria of leadership, strategic planning, customer service and knowledge, measurement, analysis and management, workforce focus, and process management and results.
The national quality award has been granted to 1,690 businesses in the past 20 years, Vinh added. 
The awarding ceremony will be organised in Hanoi on April 10.
