While dragon fruit in Vietnam has seen prices plummet, the fruit is being sold for VND200,000 per kilogram in Australian supermarkets and VND600,000 in the Netherlands. Not only dragon fruit but many other fruits are selling at high prices overseas, which shows the great potential of foreign markets.
In recent years, when litchis were plentiful, they were packed in boxes and exported to Japan, where they sold for VND350,000-500,000 per kilogram at supermarkets, a very high price level compared with domestic prices.
However, only in 2021, with repeated offers and sale promotion campaigns did Vietnam’s litchis cause a ‘global fever’. In Japan, litchis became a topic of discussion among diplomats and businesses and sold like hotcakes.
