The Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) on October 7 granted a Geographical Indication (GI) certification for dragon fruit grown in the south central province of Binh Thuan of Vietnam after three years the Binh Thuan Dragon Fruit Association had submitted the application for the status in Japan.

The Vietnamese lychees licensed to be exported to Japan is a good signal, showing that Vietnam's fruit products are able to conquer the most demanding markets.
