Avocado prices at the farm gate reached VND40,000 (US$1.54) per kilogram in Vietnam, which is the highest price in the last five years. The main reason is a supply shortage.
Avocado is mainly planted in Central Highlands in Vietnam such as Lam Dong, Dak Lak, and Dak Nong provinces. These provinces are core production areas of avocados, which accounts for 70% of the national production, mainly producing export-grade avocados.
Vietnam is mainly exported to China, which takes part in more than 50% of the total exporting amount. What is more, exporters in Vietnam also export avocados to Europe such as France and the Netherlands. Quality is a main factor for a company which is planning to export fruits to other countries all the time.
FstSort has been focusing on the production of avocado washing, drying and sorting lines for many years. We have exports several sets of avocado sorting lines to different countries.
