Viet Nam boosts seafood exports to EU through Italy
To this effect, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on food quality control has been signed by Nguyen Tu Cuong, Head of the National Fisheries Quality Assurance and Veterinary Directorate (Nafiqaved), and Romano Marabelli, General Director of the Italian Ministry of Health’s Department of Food, Nutrition and Public Health.
Marabelli said Viet Nam should increase food exports to Italy , especially seafood such as shrimp, tra and basa catfish.
He also warned that Viet Nam ’s food exports must meet hygiene safety standards in order to protect consumers’ health.
To do this, the Vietnamese representative emphasised the need to raise producers’ awareness of food safety and increase the control of functional agencies.
