City hotel exports moon cakes to US, Europe

The Dong Khanh hotel under the Saigontourist Holding Company (Saigontourist) has planned to sell about 60 tonnes of moon cakes of various types this autumn, an increase of 10 percent from last year.

About 10 percent of these cakes will be exported to the US and some European countries.
