Until now, there are about 2,000 handicraft villages nationwide which trade in lacquer, pottery, embroidered with laces, sedge, weaved products, paintings, wood products… stretching from North to South. Traditional villages are creating jobs for about 11 million people, including permanent to non-permanent labour.

Products of traditional villages are in good quality and consumed in domestic and foreign market. However, under the impact of economic recession, it’s difficult for traditional products to be sold. Because of the decrease of orders, many labours are made redundant. In domestic market, traditional products are displayed in small, unconcentrated places. Therefore, it takes customers much time to go to different villages for different products.

Melinh PLAZA has established the display area of traditional products to facilitate villagers to sell products. This would also help customers buy goods easily and conveniently. Melinh PLAZA will give special support for traditional villages such as free space, exhibitions, tourism and other marketing programs.
Displaying products in Melinh PLAZA benefits villages in some ways. First, Melinh PLAZA specializes in displaying and selling decorative building materials, high quality interior design products and household products. When customers go to Melinh PLAZA to buy goods, villages will have chance to introduce their products to customers directly.

Second, villages will benefit from convenient location and available customers of Melinh PLAZA to sign contracts. In additon, the large, fixed and long-hired space with modern infrastructure and good services also facilitate villages.
Third, Melinh PLAZA is known as a supplier of good and high-quality products. Therefore, displaying traditional products at Melinh PLAZA will help improve brand image of villages.
The project is deploying and attacting households from many traditional villages to display products. For further information, please contact Mrs. Nguyen Thi Kim Dung – General Director of Melinh PLAZA trade center, tel: 0905 333 111.
