Speaking with a reporter from Dan Tri newspaper on the morning of November 8th, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Tung, Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Fruit and Vegetable Association (VinaFruit), said that the delegation is currently on a working trip to Japan to promote bilateral fruit trade. The latest information indicates that Japan will soon open its market to Vietnamese pomelos.
Conversely, Vietnam will open its doors to Japanese grapes. "With a series of recent agreements with many countries on fresh coconuts and pomelos, these will be two new stars of the fruit and vegetable export industry in the coming years," Mr. Tung commented .
Vietnamese pomelo, passion fruit, beef, and chicken have the opportunity to enter the Japanese market.
During his recent working visit to Japan, Minister of Agriculture and Environment Trinh Viet Hung held talks with Japanese Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Takebe Arata, discussing solutions to promote bilateral cooperation in the fields of agriculture, forestry and fisheries.
