Masan Consumer is one of Vietnam’s leading food and beverages companies, has signed a contract with Quảng Ngãi Province’s Lý Sơn District for long-term purchase of Lý Sơn garlic to produce its new Nam Ngư Lý Sơn Garlic Chili Fish Sauce line.
The island district is well-known for its large garlic farms and garlic is a key crop in Lý Sơn. It has 300ha under the crop. However, garlic farming suffers from problems such as weather, diseases, inconsistent demand and unstable prices.
On July 1, Masan Consumer signed a contract with the Lý Sơn People’s Committee and representatives of local garlic farmers to purchase garlic to make its Nam Ngư Lý Sơn Garlic Chili Fish Sauce (made completely from the region’s garlic). This long-term agreement is part of Nam Ngư brand’s commitment to its business strategy of creating high-quality products with Vietnam’s specialties.
