Methods: It was descriptive cross-sectional study and conducted from January 2017 to July 2017. Participants in the study consisted of production facilities in Ca Mau province.

Results: The microbacterial contamination rate in bottled water in Ca Mau province is high (25,32%); There is an association between the microbacterial contamination rate with some food safety factors.
