Creating dynamic controls for project

I want to create dymanic controls in my ASP.NET MVC Project. For example

My Model contains an IList<Product> Products. Every product in this list contains a new IList<ProductItem>. Product item has properties Text and Value.

Now i want to create one DropDownList for every Products and every dropdownlist should contains items for ProductItem.

Is this possible with HtmlHelpers?

If you don't want to use helpers, you can always do something like this:

<select>
    @foreach (var x in Model)
    {
        <option value="@x.Value">@x.Text</option>
    }
</select>

This is pretty straight forward. In your controller

public ActionResult Index()
{
    List<Product> model = GetProductList();
    View(model);
}

In your View:

@model IList<Products>

... and then later on ... 

@Html.DropDownListFor(item => item.Name, new SelectList(Model, "Name", "Value"))
