PRICELESS TREASURES OF PHU QUOC ISLAND
When it comes to Phu Quoc island, most Vietnamese people immediately think of its famous traditional product: Phu Quoc fish sauce.
Phu Quoc fish sauce is not only famous in Vietnam but also known in many countries around the world. Phu Quoc fish sauce is an essential ingredient in Vietnamese cuisine, known for its distinctive aroma, savory taste, and reddish-brown color.
What creates the superior properties of Phu Quoc fish sauce that other types of fish sauce cannot compare to?
Phu Quoc, the pearly island, is blessed with a treasure: Phu Quoc anchovy.
Phu Quoc pearl island is an island in Vietnam, 45 km from Ha Tien town, with an extremely fresh environment.
Anchovy found in the waters of Phu Quoc has a high protein content and a unique enzyme system that makes it an ideal ingredient for fish sauce production. The resulting fish sauce is rich in protein, has a pleasant aroma, and boasts a beautiful reddish-brown color. These qualities are due to the influence of the local soil and climate on the anchovy.
Knowing this, Lien Thanh Fish Sauce Company equipped ships to purchase raw materials, went to the waters of Phu Quoc Island to purchase this extremely valuable source of anchovies, and then transported them to Ho Chi Minh City for fish sauce production.
Purchasing anchovies from Phu Quoc, salting them at sea and transporting them to Ho Chi Minh City to produce fish sauce helps Lien Thanh Company have the following advantages:
1. Lien Thanh fish sauce has the same color and flavor as Phu Quoc fish sauce.
Lien Thanh Company operates a fleet of ships that procure anchovies directly from Phu Quoc fishermen and salt them at sea. This process helps maintain the freshness of the fish and ensures that the ingredients used are the same as those used by fish sauce manufacturers on Phu Quoc island.
2. Apply modern technology to fish sauce production, ensuring food safety and hygiene for the product.
If produced in Phu Quoc, the following problems will be encountered:
– Because it is far from the mainland, it is difficult to build a modern factory.
– Difficulty recruiting highly qualified labor to operate production lines and inspect products to meet standards.
3. Product prices are cheaper than those produced in Phu Quoc.
– If produced in Phu Quoc, we will have to purchase materials and packaging from Ho Chi Minh City to ship to the island, then bottle and transport the product to the mainland. Doing this will incur huge additional shipping costs.
– The labor supply on Phu Quoc Island is limited, so we must hire workers from Ho Chi Minh City, which would increase labor costs.
