Speaking at the ceremony, a representative of PVFCCo said: "As a member of Petrovietnam, PVFCCo has made significant progress in its course of development, contributing positively and efficiently to the cause of the country’s agricultural development and food security."
With a diverse range of products, the company meets all needs of farmers, from familiar items like Phu My fertilizer products to others like NPK and potassium fertilizer under the brand Phu My Fertilizer - For a bumper harvest.
The products have proved their high quality and reliability, with reputable brands which are trusted by farmers all over the country.

Up to now, tens of thousands of Great Solidarity houses, and hundreds of schools, hospitals and medical stations have been built. Tens of thousands of scholarships have been awarded to students, and tens of thousands of Tet (Lunar New Year holiday) gifts given to poor people.
The PVFCCo representative said the company hopes that the project will make positive contribution to the care and education systems for the country’s future generations, and helping teachers and students of Quang Tien Secondary School perform well.
At the inauguration ceremony, representatives of Quang Tien commune and Quang Tien Secondary School expressed their great gratitude for the help of Petrovietnam and PVFCCo.
They noted that this valuable project not only helps the province, the school and parents reduce difficulties in developing education facilities, but also creates a vibrant teaching and learning atmosphere in the school, arousing in the hearts of students a sense of compassion and love for people and encouraging more students to overcome difficulties and excel in study and life.
Representatives of the local government and the school said they pledged to use and preserve the new building for its intended purpose; constantly improve the quality of teaching; emulate good learning and teaching; and gradually ensure the supply of equipment in line with modernization and national standards.
