Its products are also exported to developed countries as the Philippines, Japan, Thailand, Korea, and Taiwan. Quality and safety are firmly embedded in URC Vietnam's operations, as reflected in the constant recertification of all URC factories in Binh Duong and Hanoi for the Quality Management System (QMS) ISO 9001:2008 and Environment Management System ISO 14001:2015 standards. URC Vietnam's VSIP 1 Beverage & Food Plant 1/2 & Hanoi Beverage Plant also received the FSSC 22000 Food Safety System Certification. The recent opening of a Central Laboratory further bolstered URC Vietnam's dedication to quality.
