Le Anh Trung, Chairman of the Dak Lak Durian Association, said durian remains a relatively new product for Indian consumers. While the market is highly segmented, India has a large and growing middle- and upper-income population with the purchasing power to support premium fruit imports.
In the first quarter of 2026 alone, Vietnam’s durian exports surged by 230% year on year to around 222 million USD
Over the past decade, Vietnam and India have continuously strengthened political trust while expanding practical cooperation across all spheres, including trade, investment, digital technology, energy, innovation and manufacturing.
Bilateral trade approximated 15 billion USD in 2024, increasing 4.5% from 2023.
