According to the Vietnam Coconut Association, many businesses have signed contracts to export 30 – 50, even 1,500 containers of fresh coconut to China.
This showed that, China is a promising market for the Vietnamese products in the near future.
During the first nine months of 2024, the Hekou customs unit handled the import of 734,000 tons of Vietnamese fruits, worth some 1.14 billion USD, respectively rising nearly 27% and over 143% year on year, statistics show.
Meanwhile, since the Regional Comprehensive Strategic Partnership took effect on January 1, 2022, Vietnam has seen four more fruits licensed to enter China via the Youyi Guan border gate, namely durian, banana, water melon, and coconut.
The successful export of Vietnam’s fresh coconuts is the latest evidence of efforts, to promote the shipment of high-quality farm produce to China, and further intensify bilateral trade ties, helping carry out the joint statement on the two countries’ relations./.
