Conference explores ways to boost Hai Duong longan exports

VOV.VN - Chi Linh city in the northern province of Hai Duong hosted a recent conference on August 5 aimed at supporting the consumption and export of local agricultural products, especially longans.

The event was co-hosted by the Hai Duong Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Hai Duong Department of Industry and Trade, and Chi Linh city.  

At present, Chi Linh city is home to 740 hectares of longan-growing areas, with an estimated output of 4,000 tonnes.

This year saw the city provided with four longan growing area codes used to export items to demanding markets such as the EU, Singapore, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand, with an estimated output of approximately 250 tonnes.

A representative of Fusa Organic Agriculture Joint Stock Company stated that the firm has begun processing and packaging longans for exports to Europe over the coming days.

This year, Fusa is anticipated to export roughly 20 to 30 tonnes of Chi Linh longans to 300 supermarkets based in the UK and throughout the EU.

Chi Linh city has recently moved to strengthen its linkages with local export businesses as a means of introducing the fruit at supermarkets and e-commerce platforms such as Viettel Post and Lazada.

Currently, Chi Linh longans are being officially sold on Viettel Post's e-commerce platform voso.vn at a price of VND93,000 for each box of three kilos.

During the course of the conference, representatives from local firms signed a memorandum of understanding regarding the consumption of Chi Linh longans ahead in the remainder of this year.
