Quang Ninh (VNA) – AVANEST Vietnam Nutrition JSC exported the first batch of bird’s nests to China through the Bac Luan II bridge border gate in Mong Cai city, the northern province of Quang Ninh on November 20.
The shipment includes instant bird’s nest products and refined bird’s nests.
This is also the first enterprise of Vietnam to be granted a code by China's General Administration of Customs, allowing the export of two product categories of refined bird's nest, and cooked bird's nest jars.
The partner of AVANEST Vietnam is Dongxing Zhenpin Preferred Trading Co., Ltd., based in Dongxing, China. The activity marks the beginning of a promising collaboration between businesses from the two nations, paving the way for expanding Vietnam's official bird's nest exports to this potential market.
The Vietnamese enterprise was facilitated with streamlined export procedures when filing customs declarations at the Mong Cai international border gate’s customs office.
One year ago, the first batches of Vietnamese bird’s nests were officially exported to China through the Huu Nghi international border gate in Lang Son province under a protocol signed between Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and China’s General Administration of Customs.
China's expansion of bird's nest imports through official border gates has significantly boosted opportunities for Vietnam's swiftlet farming, and bird's nest production and processing industries.
As the world's largest consumer of bird's nest products, China demands more than 300 tonnes annually, accounting for 80% of the global market./.
