According to surveys, 92% of Vietnamese consumers are very interested in the campaign; 63% of consumers have stated they will prioritize using Vietnamese goods; and 54% of consumers recommend that their relatives buy Vietnamese goods. This shows that Vietnamese goods are increasingly gaining a trusted and significant position in the hearts of consumers.
