First batch of bird's nests exported to France via official channels
VOV.VN - The Hai Yen Nha Trang One Member Limited (The Hai Yen) exported its first batch of bird's nests to France in late April, marking the first shipment of the products to the demanding market via official channels.
The company’s key export items to the market include bird's nests, bird's nest drink, and bird's nest coffee, all of which have met stringent quality inspection standards set forth by both French and European markets.
Tran Thanh Hai, director of the Hai Yen, said the company, has worked alongside French authorities for a long time to formulate an inspection framework for bird's nest products to make inroads into the market.
The firm has also exerted tremendous efforts in a bid to ensure the overall product quality and build brands of Vietnamese bird's nest within the international market, she added.
The firm expects these items will become even more popular in France and other markets in the European Union, said Hai.
After going through customs clearance, the company’s bird nest products have made their presence at the "Foire de Paris" fair, one of the largest-scale trade shows in Europe that was held from April 27 to May 8 in Paris.
Last year, Hai Yen also exported its bird's nests to China.
Due to bright export prospects, Vietnam has classified bird's nests as one of the special livestock products.
Over the past decade, the country as implemented a number of policies to promote the development of the bird's nest industry, aiming to earn US$1 billion from export in the coming time.
