Vietnam's fruit export revenue hit US$4.63 billion in the first eight months of 2024, representing an increase of 30.6% compared to the same period last year, thanks to the opening of several key markets.
With Vietnamese passion fruit to be licensed to enter the United States shortly, the export of this fruit to this market is expected to bring back between US$50-100 million, according to industry insiders.
Vietnam and the United States are considering opening their markets to new types of fruits, including passion fruit from Vietnam and mandarins from the US.
Fruit and vegetable exports are forecast to continue going smooth in the time ahead thanks to abundant domestic supply and foreign markets’ growing demand.
