"The Lychee king, originally named Toad in the Moon, has a rich fruit flesh, sweet and sour juice, and it endures transport well. This product variety comes from Hainan and has already spread across production areas in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Fujian.
Yongxing Village in Hainan is known as the "hometown of lychees". This town depends on its rich volcanic environment to guarantee a unique lychee variety. Yongxing lychees grow bigger because of the minerals in the volcanic earth, the nucleus remains small, and the taste is perfect. The Yongxing lychee received the status of a nationally acknowledged regional product in 2015." This is according to Mr. Wang Zhiqiang of the Yongxing E-commerce Charity Center.

"The new lychee production season will start soon. This year will produce a bumper harvest, and the overall production volume will be much larger than last year. It is estimated that the price will be lower than last year. There are many lychee varieties. Concubine's Smile, March Red, and Rice Cake are well known, but Yongxing lychees are relatively new. The optimum time to enter the market is between June and mid-July. Last year our production volume was smaller as a result of a limited production environment and weather conditions. The bumper harvest this year, however, will provide ample business opportunities for plantation owners and traders alike."

"We own 1,333 hectares of lychee plantations in Yongxing. We currently sell online and offline, primarily through the wholesale markets and supermarkets on Hainan. Now that the harvest looks to be abundant, we hope to open up markets beyond this island. The Yongxing lychee distribution center will play an important role in that development. The center is an integrated information and distribution center where Yongxing lychees are packaged and sold. Plantation owners and traders can connect here and gather relevant data on the lychee trade."
