Through this engagement, the cooperative hopes to boost exports of agricultural products, particularly processed goods, to the Middle East and other Muslim-majority markets.
During the program, the delegation visited several production and business models in Lien Minh, O Dien and Dan Phuong communes, including Van Hien Temple, Lan Toan Cau Company, Tan Viet Foods Company, An Lac Farm and a food processing facility. The tour offered participants a closer look at the potential for high-tech agriculture as well as the processing capacity and product diversification of local enterprises.
Ambassador H.E. Dr. Bader Almatrooshi expressed appreciation for the warm welcome from local leaders and Hanoi Xanh Cooperative. He noted strong demand in the UAE for Halal-certified products and said he hopes both sides will expand cooperation, helping more high-quality Vietnamese agricultural products reach the UAE market.

It is also adopting advanced processing technologies, particularly for medicinal herbs and local crops, to improve efficiency and build sustainable value chains.
Currently, Hanoi Xanh Cooperative’s products are made under strict production standards and hold several international certifications, including Halal, GMP and ISO, allowing them to meet the strict requirements of export markets.
The visit is expected to create new opportunities for cooperation and help local agricultural and processed products expand into international markets, especially the growing global Halal market.
