On the evening of June 12, an interdisciplinary team from Hanoi inspected the pig slaughtering process at the Hanoi branch of CP Vietnam Livestock Joint Stock Company (NM3 branch, Phu Nghia Industrial Park, Chuong My district).
The inspection revealed that the company has an automated slaughter line with a capacity of 2,000 pigs per day. The slaughter areas are arranged in a technical sequence, ensuring veterinary hygiene and food safety requirements. The slaughter process is closely monitored by officers from the Diagnosis, Testing, and Slaughter Control Station for Animals (under the Department of Livestock, Fisheries, and Veterinary Medicine of Hanoi).

The slaughterhouse has a solid structure, with functional areas clearly separated, and the pig slaughtering process strictly adheres to veterinary hygiene regulations. The waiting pens are spacious and well-ventilated, equipped with cooling and misting systems, modern machinery, and equipment, ensuring safety and hygiene.
The facility owner and direct participants in the slaughtering process have received training and certification in food hygiene and safety practices and comply with personal hygiene regulations. At the time of the inspection, the company was slaughtering approximately 600 pigs.
Previously, on June 5, the Department of Livestock, Fisheries, and Veterinary Medicine of Hanoi also inspected the pig slaughtering process at the NM3 branch of CP Vietnam Livestock Joint Stock Company. On June 4, the Department conducted an inspection of Hanoi Meat Processing Plant to review their compliance with legal regulations regarding poultry slaughtering.
The inspection team concluded that the CP company’s Chuong My branch is in full compliance with legal regulations on poultry and pig slaughtering.

Mr. Nguyen Dinh Dang, Head of the Department of Livestock, Fisheries, and Veterinary Medicine of Hanoi, stated that the city currently has 701 slaughterhouses, 150 of which are under control. The daily meat supply reaches approximately 450 tons.
However, controlling small-scale slaughterhouses remains challenging due to limited personnel, lack of enforcement authority for veterinary services, and the absence of intra-provincial quarantine regulations, making it difficult to trace the origin of slaughtered animals.
In June 2025, the unit plans to inspect 35 slaughterhouses in the city, focusing on districts such as Thanh Tri, Thanh Oai, Chuong My, Phu Xuyen, Thuong Tin, Dan Phuong, Dong Anh, and Gia Lam.
