Speaking at the event, Tran Thi Phuong Lan, Acting Director of the Hanoi Department of Industry and Trade, said that recognizing and honoring the city's key industrial products will enhance brand value, promote business development, and foster sustainable growth for enterprises.

She added that this demonstrates the city government's attention, support and continuous assistance to the capital's enterprises.

"The Hanoi People's Committee will run various programs to support these groups of enterprises, including market facilitation and product insertion, technical assistance, support for scientific and technological development and human resources, and promotion and recognition of key industrial products and enterprises," Lan stressed.

In 2023, the program received nominations from nearly 200 industrial manufacturers. Among them, there are 26 enterprises with 37 qualified products registered to be selected as key industrial products in 2023.

Specifically, mechanical and manufacturing industries accounted for 30.3% of the total, followed by electrical and electronic industries (27.3%), chemical, rubber, plastic, and pharmaceutical sectors (21.3%), information technology (12.1%), and others such as textile, garment, leather, footwear, agro-food, and construction materials industries (9% each).

The selected enterprises had a combined sales revenue of VND62 trillion (US$2.57 billion) and export revenue of over US$3.6 billion last year, seven of which had product sales revenue of over VND1 trillion (US$41.5 million) each.

Among them, seven were Vietnam's top 500 enterprises, and six were first-time applicants with seven new products.

Over the past five years, the Hanoi People's Committee has recognized 229 industrial products. Their manufacturers have taken a leading position in industrial development, contributing significantly to the overall value of industrial production and aligning with the capital's socio-economic development strategy.
