First batches of Vietnam’s fresh coconuts enter China
On October 15, a refrigerated truck carrying 2,700 fresh coconuts of Vietnam cleared customs at the Hekou border gate of China’s Yunnan province, which is adjacent to the Lao Cai border gate of Vietnam’s Lao Cai province.
The produce, totalling 21.6 tonnes and 110,000 CNY (about 15,000 USD), hailed from the Mekong Delta province of Ben Tre.
The same day, another batch was delivered to the neighbouring market via the Youyi Guan border gate of Pingxiang city, China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Also coming from Ben Tre, it weighed 22.4 tonnes and was worth 98,000 CNY.
Vietnam’s fresh coconuts were licensed to be exported via the official channel to China in August.
During the first nine months of 2024, the Hekou customs unit handled the import of 734,000 tonnes of Vietnamese fruits worth 8.11 billion CNY, respectively rising 26.9% and 143.5% year on year, statistics show.
Meanwhile, since the Regional Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (RCEP) 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./.
