The association is requested to proactively provide market information, import demand, technical regulations, quality standards, and plant quarantine requirements of importing markets; and to support businesses in connecting with trading partners and expanding markets for lychee fruit.
In addition, it is necessary to promote the brand of Vietnamese lychees through trade fairs, exhibitions, direct and online business networking activities; strengthen coordination with distribution systems, e-commerce platforms and Vietnamese trade offices abroad to promote the consumption and export of lychees…
