Dong Nai (VNA) – The first shipment of Vietnamese chicken will be dispatched to Japan by sea on September 9.
Koyu & Unitek Co., Ltd, a joint venture between Australia and Japan in southern Dong Nai province, will ship 30 tonnes of chicken wings, thighs and breasts to Japan, which are expected to arrive in Tokyo in 10 days.
The company has signed a long-term contract with the Japanese side in which Japan will import about 300 tonnes of chicken products per month, said Director General of the firm James Hieu.
According to Hieu, Japan imports over 900,000 tonnes of poultry products annually. In fact, Koyu & Unitek falls short of its Japanese partner’s real demand which exceeds 2,000 tonnes per month.
The firm plans to increase capacity in the future by enhancing cooperation with farmers to raise chickens and expanding processing facilities.-VNA
