The Vietnam Dairy Products Joint Stock Company (Vinamilk) said it has
been licensed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to export its
products to the US.

According to the US regulations on
food safety and anti-bioterrorism, food producers, who want to have
their products consumed in the US , must register with FDA.

FDA’s assessment and license granting are initial obligatory procedures
for foreign enterprises to ship commodities to the country.

FDA may suddenly inspect any Vinamilk production facility and this process takes place very strictly.

Vinamilk products, mainly powdered milk, baby food, condensed milk,
fresh milk, soya milk and fruit milk, have so far been exported to
several countries, including Australia , Canada , Russia , Japan ,
Thailand and Middle Eastern nations.

The
company’s export turnover reached almost 180 million USD in 2012 and the
figure is 92 million USD in the first two quarters of this year.-VNA
