Bright prospects for Vietnamese fruit exports in 2015
(VOV) -Vietnamese fruit exports see bright prospects in 2015 after the first batch of fresh longan exported to the US last December, followed by eight others early this month.
The country is implementing necessary technical steps to export its lichees to the US this year. Mangos and star apples may also be approved to enter the highly lucrative market.
Several other demanding markets have also opened to a number of Vietnamese fruits. Vietnam and Japan are negotiating certain conditions for Japan to import red-flesh dragon fruits.
The Republic of Korea has already imported Vietnamese mangos and is considering importing star apple fruits from Vietnam.
Meanwhile, necessary procedures are underway for Vietnam’s mangosteen and plums to enter China’s markets.
