There remain 60 households in An Nhan Dong and An Nhan Tay areas, Tu Ky township, making items from bamboo and rattan for life and agricultural production.

Each family is in charge of one stage. Most of the craftsmen are old people.

Products of the trade village are slowly consumed and less competitive than those made of plastic and other materials in the market.


The trade village provides jobs for more than 100 workers, mostly old people


Taking advantage of their leisure time, Dang Minh Tuan's family in An Nhan Tay area make 60 – 100 products each month with an income of more than 4 million VND


Products are sun-dried before being smoked in the kitchen
