The Kingdom of Cambodia is now able to directly export its longan to the Chinese market, Chinese Embassy in Cambodia said this evening.
The direct shipment is made possible after the General Administration of Customs of the People’s Republic of China (GACC) approved the list of registered longan farms and packaging factories.
Cambodia’s longan has completed all export procedures and is allowed to be shipped to China, the source underlined.
According to the embassy, 74 registered farms and 8 packaging factories have been authorised to export longan to China.
Besides, 75 mango farms and 2 mango packaging factories have been added.
Since the beginning of 2022, the Chinese side has completed the risk assessment of Cambodian Pra fish, sweet corn and longan, said the embassy, stressing that to date, three Cambodian fruits – banana, mango and longan – can be shipped directly to China.
Cambodia exported more than 2.4 million tonnes of its agricultural products worth US$1.942 million to the Chinese market from 2019 to the first half of 2022.
