  1. Risk Assessment in Food Supply Chains: The Case of Pork Supply Chains in Hanoi, Vietnam Presenter: Nguyen Ngoc Toan International Livestock Research Institute – Hanoi Office AARES 2010 Conference Adelaide, 10 February 2010

  2. Pork Consumption in Vietnam • Pork is the dominant source of meat consumption in Vietnamese diet (30%-40% meat expenditure). Fresh pork is the dominant form of pork and is prefered by Vietnamese consumers (93% in big cities and 96% in rural areas). • Pork and other meat demand is growing as the economy grows and more options are accessible to increasingly affluent Vietnamese consumers. • Demand for pork is relatively inelastic to income. • Consumers tend to diversify their meat diet to other meat such as beef, seafood and poultry • Open permanent and temporary markets are the main outlets of pork purchase (65% and 31% respectively). Modern outlets such as supermarket, convenience stores and shops of branded meat are avaialble only in big cities but not widely available.

  3. Pork Consumption and Food Safety • Food safety and hygiene is a major concern of consumers, especially in big cities. • In 2008, there are 2160 cases of health problems relating to food with 391 deaths. 35% cases of cancer result from chemical residues in food. • Only 58% slaughtered livestock is under controlled. • For pork, pig diseases and chemical residues in pork are two most worrying issues. • In the presence of serious contagious diseases, consumers tend to reduce or stop pork consumption or turn to perceptively more safe market outlets. • Safety of fresh pork in open markets is poorly monitored. Consumers buy pork based on observation and experience.

  4. Risk Assessment Approach • Identify existing pork supply chains in Hanoi and surrounding areas with focus on traditional and modern market chains. • Design risk assessment strategy to evaluate risks along the chains, using “farm to fork” approach.

  6. Risk Assessment Strategy • Identify a representative urban district in Hanoi (Thanh Xuan district) and 3 representative peripheral districts in former Hatay (Hoai Duc, My Duc, Dan Phuong), based on local animal health department’s report on pork risk and safety. • Randomly select markets, which have more than five pork retailers that sell more than 50 kg carcass per day, in the district (3 supermarkets, 5 open markets in Hanoi and 3 open markets in HaTay) • Randomly select retailers that sell more than 50 kg carcass per day in the markets (3 supermarkets, 5 from each open markets in Hanoi, 10 from 3 open markets in HaTay) • Take pork samples from each retailer, fill retailer questionnaires and checklists, interview 4 consumers that buy pork from each of them. • Visit three centralized slaughterhouses in urban Hanoi that supply carcass to those retailers. Take blood and faecal samples, fill slaughter checklists, transporter checklists from these and 5 homeslaughters in HaTay. • Identify source of pigs in Hanoi, carry out three village PRA in HaTay, each with 7-10 pig producers. Visit 6 farms in each village and fill in producer checklists.
