Hanoi (VNA) - An exhibition showcasing Vietnam’s distinctive farm produce exported to China opened in Hanoi on October 13, featuring the participation of 16 local enterprises and introducing over 50 categories of high-quality products from across the three regions of the country.
The event is co-organised by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and relevant ministries, agencies, and localities.
On display are a range of items particularly favoured by Chinese consumers, including coffee, tea, durian, bananas, dairy products, and swiftlet nests. Additionally, the expo introduced goods with significant potential for the Chinese market like fresh coconuts and frozen durians as well as other promising items with high demand in China such as various types of fruits.
Participating Vietnamese enterprises include PAN Group, TH Group, Khanh Hoa Salanganes Nest Company, Nutifood Binh Duong, AVANEST Vietnam Nutrition JSC, Phong Hai Lao Cai JSC, and Trung Nguyen Legend Group, among others.
The exhibition serves as an excellent opportunity for Vietnamese producers and suppliers to introduce and promote their agricultural brands and products while seeking customers, enhancing trade, and building sustainable partnerships with potential fruit importers from China.
In the first nine months, Vietnam’s export turnover of agro-forestry-fishery products to China reached 9.26 billion USD, with fruit and vegetable accounting for 3.4 billion USD, an annual increase of 36%.
To date, Vietnam has officially exported 14 agricultural products to the Chinese market, including durian, swiftlet nest, sweet potato, dragon fruit, longan, rambutan, mangoes, jackfruit, and watermelon. Meanwhile, most of the remaining products are exported through the border-trade channel./.
