A place to turn idle farming time into economic value

Tan Phuc Small Industry Cooperative, located in Tan Phuc commune, Nong Cong district, Thanh Hoa province, is an outstanding economic model, not only promoting local economic development but also creating effective and meaningful social and economic values.

By focusing on small-scale handicraft industries such as weaving and processing handicraft products, Tan Phuc Small-scale Handicraft Cooperative is currently creating jobs for nearly 1,000 workers.

At the cooperative, workers are mainly between the ages of 45 and 75.

Workers here often have difficulty finding jobs, but thanks to the flexibility and effective organization of the cooperative, they have had the opportunity to stabilize their lives.

With the majority of workers being farmers, the cooperative has taken advantage of their leisure time, helping them earn extra income without affecting their farm work.

In addition, Tan Phuc Handicraft Cooperative also focuses on organizing free or low-cost vocational training classes, focusing on occupations such as weaving and handicraft processing.

After completing the course, workers are given the opportunity to directly participate in production at the cooperative, ensuring stable and long-term employment.

Products of Tan Phuc Cooperative are not only consumed domestically but also exported to many countries around the world , bringing stable income to the cooperative and creating momentum for local economic development.

This model not only helps increase people's income but also contributes to reducing unemployment rates in the community.

Vocational training and job creation for elderly workers not only help them have a more meaningful life but also promote solidarity and sustainable development of the locality.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong (Director of Tan Phuc Handicraft Cooperative) said: "Tan Phuc Cooperative not only focuses on economic efficiency but also cares about community cohesion. With the support of local authorities and the efforts of workers, I hope Tan Phuc Handicraft Cooperative will contribute to improving people's lives and building a more prosperous homeland."
