According to information from Market Management Team No. 2 Hanoi, on September 11, 2025, the unit inspected a food business establishment at 39 Ham Tu Quan, Hong Ha Ward, Hanoi City. Through inspection, the authorities discovered that this establishment was selling 1,568 cakes of all kinds, including 1,440 moon cakes and 128 spried cotton cakes with foreign labels.
At the time of inspection, the owner of the facility could not present invoices or legal documents proving the origin of the shipment. All of the above cakes were identified as smuggled goods and were temporarily detained by Market Management Team No. 2 for handling according to legal regulations.
A representative of Market Management Team No. 2 said that the business of smuggled moon cakes of unknown origin has many potential risks to food safety, which can directly affect the health of consumers, especially during the Mid-Autumn Festival when consumer demand increases.
Not only focusing on food items, Market Management Team No. 2 also coordinated with the city's functional agencies to inspect 8 children's toy businesses in Hoan Kiem and Hong Ha wards.
As a result, the authorities discovered and seized 2,972 children's toys of all kinds with foreign language labels, without invoices or documents proving their legal origin. The total value of the infringing goods is estimated at 96.73 million VND.
Toymaking products are also a key group of goods that are subject to inspection and supervision of origin and quality in this year's Mid-Autumn Festival peak plan.
