HNM: Disclosure of importing milk from China by Hanoimilk JSC
From January to February 2008, Hanoimilk imported 375 tons of powdered milk from China for commercial purposes with partners in Vietnam, 95 tons of which have been sold and 280 tons are still at store.
This is a normal business activity in accordance with the law. The goods has clear origin, all taxes has been paid and a certificate of hygiene standards on food security was granted by the Vietnam Food Administration. All these documents have been submitted to Inspectors. We did not use this powdered milk for our products. All products of Hanoimilk have been made from fresh milk in Vietnam, powdered milk imported from the United States, New Zealand which have high level of quality and hygiene standard on food security.
However, some mass media have reported the import of powdered milk from China of Hanoimilk, which is not sufficient and accurate. This article of news has negatively affected the company production and business activities. Both product consumption and sales have decreased sharply. However, we believe that Hanoimilk JSC will overcome this crisis with the support from investors and our own effort.
To prove the quality and the safety of our products, on 24/09/2008, after the inspectors took samples from Hanoimilk for the test, we sent all ingredient and product samples for test to the Centre of analysis, service and experiment, Institute of nutrition, in Hochiminh city and Singapore. Currently, we have received the test results of 2 powdered milk samples and 8 samples of finished products. The results show that our products haven’t contained Melamine, which has been posted on website www.hanoimilk.com
