Thailand remained the leading supplier of fruit and vegetables to Vietnam with a value of nearly US$73 million in January, trailed by China with approximately US$39 million, and the US with about US$19 million.
Other markets such as the Republic of Korea and Australia were also popular suppliers of fruits like apples, pears, and kiwi for Vietnamese customers.
As an agricultural country, Vietnam has spent a lot of money on imports of fruit and vegetables over the past two years. The annual import value has increased from US$200 million to nearly US$1 billion.
