HÀ NỘI — The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) has requested a recall and told consumers not to use imported cheese under the brand Hardy Affineur from France.

France has also recalled the affected products.
The ministry has asked management agencies to inform businesses and individuals about the recall.
In addition to the recall, the ministry has also tightened imports of Valencay Aoc Affine Hardy cheese.
