According to Nguyen Dinh Phu, Chairman of the Vietnamese Entrepreneurs Association in the United States (VENUSA), VENUSA has exerted a lot of efforts to conduct many measures for years. The cost of Bac Giang lychee in the US is expected to be halved over the previous year. VENUSA is always ready and willing to bring lychee as well as many other agricultural products of Bac Giang to the people here.
Regarding the irradiation issue in Southern localities causing high freight, the Hanoi Irradiation Center informed that the Center has worked with US enterprises to calibrate the specification as required by the importing country. As schedule, the irradiation can be done in early June, helping reduce costs and create favorable conditions to lychee to the US.
This year, the output of lychee produced for US market is estimated at 1,500 tons. According to the Department of Industry and Trade, up to now, many US entrepreneurs and businesses have contacted and provided information about the market, especially the demand, standards and potential partner.
