Teen makes a good profit and reduces unemployment
Vietnam mushroom business takes off
Starting in 2015 with a mere $13,170, Bui Minh Thang has built up a mushroom farm of over 3,000 square metres. This lucrative business in Ho Chi Minh City earns him $6500 to $8700 each month and helps reduce unemployment in the area.
According to Hoang Minh Thang, the Deputy Secretary of Cu Chi District’s Youth Union, this business model has been effective at creating jobs for many local people and helped improving their income as well.
En.vietnamplus.vn quoted Bui Minh Thang as saying that Vietnam’s climate is very appropriate for growing mushrooms. Moreover, the market is now increasing its demand for high quality mushroom species, therefore he is determined to develop the business further.
