Import market for Fresh Durian in South Korea (6월, 2022)

The article highlights a decrease in Vietnam's fruit and vegetable exports, primarily due to a significant drop in exports to China, the industry's main market, by 31.4% in the first five months of 2022 compared to the previous year. This decline is attributed to China's stricter import controls, longer negotiation times, and quarantine measures, resulting in backlogs at border crossings. Despite these challenges, there are positive developments, including progress in exporting durians to China and the US's approval for importing Vietnamese pomelo. Additionally, the market share of Vietnamese bananas in China has grown, and there has been a shift towards more stringent markets like the US, Japan, and Korea, showing potential for growth in these markets.
