Currently, under the localgovernment’s guidelines, slaughtering centres are gradually established inorder to strengthen the state management in the field, ensure to provide the consumerswith safe food, improve public health and contribute to environmentalprotection and disease prevention for livestock and poultry.
In Quy Nhon city inparticular and Binh Dinh province in general, at present there are over 600 private slaughteringestablishments located among residential areas with unsafe slaughteringconditions; therefore, it is easy to spread contagious diseases. There is a lack of concentrated animal slaughtering centres with modernfacilities in the province. In June 2015, the PPC approved for a slaughteringcentre project invested by Binh Dinh Organic Food Company in Tran Quang Dieuward, Quy Nhon city and the investor is implementing procedures to start theconstruction soon.
