  "account": "On April 22, Vietnam and South Korea agreed to open up their markets to processed chicken from Vietnam. C.P. Vietnam became the first company to fulfill the criteria for shipping its first consignment of processed chicken to the Korean market. To satisfy the stringent demands of the Korean market, the company spent over five years preparing and passed through an eight-stage assessment conducted by Korean authorities, focusing on animal and plant quarantine, as well as food and pharmaceutical safety.\n\nThe first shipment from Vietnam represents a boost in the production and processing skills of Vietnamese firms, like C.P. Vietnam, allowing them to satisfy the criteria of high-standard markets. This accomplishment highlights the international integration of the agricultural and food sectors. Since the significant shipment to South Korea, C.P. Vietnam's processed chicken is now being exported to eight different international markets, which include markets with stringent standards such as Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Russia.\n\nC.P. Vietnam stated that this achievement will motivate them to continue investing in technology, enhance their deep-processing capabilities, raise the value of their products, and engage more profoundly in the global food supply chain.",
  "summary": "Vietnam has exported its first shipment of processed chicken to South Korea, four months after the market was opened to the product.",
