Japanese delegation visits Hai Phong lychee-growing areas
A delegation of Japanese businesses, organizations and local representatives visited and surveyed lychee-growing areas in Hai Phong on June 16 to explore consumption links and expand export markets
The delegation was led by Mr. Yushita Hiroyuki, former Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Japan to Vietnam.
Deputy Chairman Tran Van Quan said Hai Phong lychees have been on the Japanese market since 2019, and exports of fresh lychees to Japan have grown in recent years, underscoring the fruit’s brand and quality.
He expressed hope that the survey would open opportunities to connect producers with buyers and further expand export markets. With production areas following safe farming procedures, traceable planting area codes and packing facilities that meet export requirements, Hai Phong lychees are expected to strengthen their brandname in the Japanese market.
Earlier, the Japanese delegation visited and presented gifts to Chu Van An Secondary School in Thanh Ha Commune and learned about Chu Dau ceramics in Thai Tan Commune.
