Located in the heart of Xieng Khuang Province, the Honey Exhibition and Distribution Centre in Paek District is more than a place to purchase honey. It serves as a hub for promoting agricultural biodiversity while providing essential guidelines and knowledge on beekeeping.
Established in 2019 through a partnership between the Department of Agriculture and Forestry and the Terra Renaissance Project, the centre’s goal is to boost the income of local communities while preserving the ecosystem. By supporting sustainable beekeeping practices, the centre helps maintain healthy forests and promote livelihoods that protect the environment.
Overcoming Challenges with Stakeholder Collaboration
Despite early challenges such as limited market access, lack of capital, and insufficient technical expertise, the centre has remained active for over five years. During this time, it has focused on producing high-quality honey, offering training to beekeepers, and conducting market research to expand opportunities. These efforts have led to success. The centre has helped local people earn a sustainable income while also contributing to environmental conservation. Xieng Khuang’s honey, known for its unique taste and fragrance from the region’s diverse floral sources, has gained both local and international attention.
Services for future beekeepers
For those interested in starting their own beekeeping ventures, the centre provides valuable guidance and support. With preparation and commitment, new beekeepers can help protect the environment while enjoying the benefits of this rewarding activity. We invite you to visit the center to learn more about our honey products and beekeeping initiatives.
