On the afternoon of July 9, Team 22 of the Hanoi City Market Management Department, in coordination with the Economic Police Team of Bac Tu Liem District’s Police, conducted a surprise inspection of five businesses operating along Nguyen Dinh Tu Street, Xuan Dinh Ward, Bac Tu Liem District, Hanoi.
The authorities identified the head of the business households as Mr. Lai Vu Thang, born in 1988, with a permanent residence at 58, alley 401, Xuan Dinh Street, Bac Tu Liem District.

At the time of the inspection, authorities discovered over 50,000 products, totaling more than 20 tons of goods, including cosmetics, shampoo, and children’s toothpaste of various brands such as ACLEAF Repair toner, OHBT, MAMACOS, and O-ZONE. These products were suspected to be past their expiration dates and were manufactured abroad.
Notably, a large quantity of O-ZONE-branded children’s toothpaste and numerous cosmetics were found with their original expiration dates tampered with. The dates had been erased, and new dates were printed or stamped, extending the shelf life by several years.
When questioned, the business owner could not produce any invoices or documents to verify the legal origin of the goods. The inspection team is currently conducting an inventory and classification of the goods and will proceed with handling the case in accordance with regulations.
