Bac Giang has devised many plans for lychee consumption

Bac Giang, the locality with the largest lychee acreage in the country, is currently a hot spot of the Covid-19 epidemic. Facing this situation, the local government has devised many plans to ensure the lychee harvest, transport and consumption.

According to Mr. Nguyen Van Phuong, Deputy Director of Bac Giang Department of Industry and Trade, Bac Giang's early lychee batches have currently been exported to the Chinese market through the border gates of Lao Cai, Tan Thanh - Lang Son.

For the domestic market, the province has soon connected with wholesale systems and wholesale markets such as Thu Duc and Binh Dien in Ho Chi Minh City. Ho Chi Minh City, Dau Day in Dong Nai, Hoa Cuong in Da Nang, wholesale markets of Hanoi and other provinces.

Furthermore, Bac Giang has also contacted and worked with major supermarket systems, trade centers, connecting and supporting businesses and cooperatives, registering and opening booths on e-commerce exchange platforms such as Alibaba, Amazon, Voso, Sendo, Lazada.

As for the export market, the Deputy Director of the Department of Industry and Trade shared: “Since the beginning of April, Bac Giang province has invited departments and institutes of the MoIT and the MARD to work and exchange regarding proposals for exporting lychee to foreign markets, especially China and other fastidious markets”.

Organize for Chinese traders’ lychee purchase

As informed by Mr. Phuong, the Prime Minister has agreed to send 190 Chinese traders to Bac Giang to survey and purchase lychee. However, at present, the Covid-19 epidemic situation is still complicated, so Chinese traders have not been able to come over yet.

In regard to this situation, Bac Giang has also had a plan to transship lychee through the border gates, now deployed at the border gate of Lao Cai province.

“Bac Giang Thieu lychee will be guaranteed in disinfection and transported to a gathering area near the border gate. Then the Chinese driver will pick up and drive to the customs clearance point. After driving the car to China's gathering area, they will proceed to unload and come back to the gathering area and return the car to Vietnam to complete the delivery procedures", said Deputy Director of Bac Giang Department of Industry and Trade.
