Dong Nai is carrying out tasks under the province’s Intellectual Property Development Program. These include the establishment, management, and development of the “Vinh Cuu – Dong Nai Green-Skinned Pomelo” certification trademark for green-skinned pomelo products originating from the former Vinh Cuu District, and the “Tan Phu – Dong Nai Green-Skinned Pomelo” certification trademark for products from the former Tan Phu District.

In addition, tasks include the establishment, management, and development of the “Tan Phu – Dong Nai Durian” certification trademark for durian products from the former Tan Phu District, and the “Lam San – Cam My Pepper” certification trademark for pepper products from the former Cam My District.

After the merger of the former Binh Phuoc and former Dong Nai provinces into the new Dong Nai Province, ALIAT Law Co., Ltd. recommended continuing the implementation of these tasks.
