Firm produces helmets without valid licence

HA NOI (VNS)— Authorities have discovered a company that is producing helmets despite failing to renew their production licence.

Nearly 5,000 helmets with quality certification stamps that were not up to date were found in Long Bien District's Bo De Ward, according to the Ha Noi Market Watch office on Wednesday.

The Song Long Industry Co-operative had failed to renew its production licence, raising concerns about the quality of the helmets, which were confiscated.

Ho Chi Minh City Market Watch officers also seized more than 10,000 substandard helmets recently. — VNS
