Vietnam exports three tonnes of avocados to Australia
VOV.VN - Three tonnes of frozen avocados produced in the Central Highlands of Vietnam were shipped to the Australian market on January 11, marking a new step in building a brand for local avocados.
The shipment, exported by Uu Dam Vietnam company, was then sold to local distributors and is set to hit the shelves in Australia with a price of AUD7 per kg, equivalent to VND120,000 per kg, in the near future.
The export of this fruit to the Australian market has been bolstered and studied by the Vietnam Trade Office in Australia since 2020. However, Australia has yet to open its doors to fresh Vietnamese avocado.
The office stated that Vietnamese avocados enjoyed huge export potential to the Australian market thanks to its competitive prices and high quality.
Moving forward, the Embassy of Vietnam in Australia will co-operate alongside national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines to carry out a promotional programme aimed at building brand and boosting exports of frozen avocados to Australia.
