Bento avocado sausage is a new product of the LC Foods Bento line - developed from fresh fish that meets export standards, marking a new direction of Vietnamese enterprises in raising the value of the domestic food chain.
According to a representative of LC Foods Joint Stock Company, all ingredients for making Bento quail sausages are strictly controlled by the fish farming ecosystem in the Mekong Delta - which supplies the largest output of pangasius and basa to the world market. Using fresh fish fillets to produce Bento eggplant sausages not only creates a competitive advantage but also affirms the commitment to increasing the value of Vietnamese agricultural products in processed products.
The special feature of the LC Foods Bento sausage line is the filling containing stewed eggs - which is only popular in high-end cuisine - cleverly combined in the product core, creating a crunchy and unique texture. According to LC Foods, modern processing technology is an important factor in helping to preserve the texture of quail during the heating process, thereby bringing a different experience compared to traditional sausage lines.

The product also scores points for its use of white protein - a protein recommended by scientists in a healthy diet. Fish meat is a natural source of Omega-3, vitamin D, B12 and essential minerals that support the heart, brain and vision - in line with current consumer culinary trends.
This is also the effort of the R&D (Research & Development) team of LC Foods in carefully researching to preserve the nutritional value of fish meat, while also treating the fishy smell, meeting the tastes of Vietnamese consumers, including young people who do not like to eat fish.
In addition, Bento quail sausage is also built according to the "Trendy & Healthy" principle - "Showering & Living Green" - part of LC Foods' development orientation for the LC Foods Bento product line. Inspired by Japan's "Bento" culture - where each meal is a combination of nutrition, aesthetics and convenience - this new product line is aimed at consumers who prioritize health but still value the culinary experience.
The inclusion of exported fish in domestic consumer products not only shows LC Foods' deep processing capabilities, but also affirms the strategy of developing a closed 3F (Feed - Farm - Food) food production model - from farm to dining table. This model ensures end-to-end quality control, traceability, ensures safe products and contributes to building a sustainable agricultural system.
At the same time, this is also a testament to the efforts of Vietnamese enterprises in developing value-added products, better serving the needs of domestic consumers, instead of focusing only on exporting raw materials.
(seafood.vasep.com.vn) For many years, Vietnam’s seafood industry has been recognized as one of the country’s key export pillars. Products such as shrimp, pangasius, tuna, squid, octopus, and a wide range of other seafood have reached hundreds of markets worldwide. Yet behind these impressive export figures lies a significant challenge: a substantial share of Vietnam’s seafood export value still comes from minimally processed products, contract manufacturing, and raw material exports—segments characterized by low profit margins and high vulnerability to fluctuations in global prices.
