The signing ceremony took place in Vung Tau city in the southern province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau on April 4.



Ho Si Bao, Director of Amazon Foods and member of the Chau Duc organic cacao cooperative in Ba Ria-Vung Tau, said the company will export 1,000 organic chocolate bars to Japan in April this year. 



This is the first mark of locally-made chocolate to be exclusively distributed in Japan, he said.
