"There are only a few regions in China that are suitable for growing cherries. With China's largest cherry greenhouse area, Dalian's unique geographical location and climate make it one of China's and the world's best regions for growing cherries. We mainly grow Tieton, Black Rose, Red Light, Red Honey and Jinzhou cherries," says Mr. Li Lejun, cherry producer in Dalian, Liaoning.

"Our cherry greenhouses are located in the Pulandian District, where we mainly produce Tieton cherries. Because the temperature differences between day and night here are rather big, and the soil is sandy with much room for water, air and warmth, this area is very suitable for growing cherries. The fruit is large, shiny, rather heavy, and sweet, making it a best-seller on the market."

"The ripening of Dalian cherries can be divided into two periods. The ripening in greenhouses and in the open air are respectively between February and May, and July and August. Currently, our cherries are mainly sold through traditional sales channels to distributors and supermarkets in first and second tier cities in China. This year's sales are very satisfactory, as the price is higher than last year. Through years of developments, the cherry industry in Dalian has been industrializing gradually. We hope that we can have the opportunity to join hand with reputable purchasers, and sell our high quality Dalian cherries to more areas."
