This will help develop strong trademarks and contribute to enhancing thereputation of Vietnamese products both domestically and internationally.
The VietnamNational Brand Programme is not a branding award ceremony, but rather the only VietnameseGovernment programme to advertise the country’s image and trademark throughproducts and services, Phu added.
According to the Vietrade, the national brand enterprise selection isconducted every two years in order to encourage them to continue to share andpursue the values of the programme including quality, innovation, creativity,and pioneering capacity.
On the basisof promoting these values, firms compete in their industries and fields ofproduction and business based on constant innovation and improved productquality.
In October, Brand Finance – the world’s leading independentbranded business valuation and strategy consultancy – valued Vietnam’s nationalbrand at 235 billion USD, a year-on-year increase of 16 percent.
