This incident was announced on the SFA’s official website, accompanied by images and descriptions of the origin of the above products as being from Vietnam.

The Vietnam Trade Office recommends that in order to have good market access, increase market share and create product brand reputation among consumers in Singapore, Vietnamese businesses should regularly update information and strictly comply. regulations of the host country.
