This is also the first time canned fruit from Vietnam has been sold at a retail chain in France.
Vietnamese Ambassador to France Dinh Toan Thang said this significant step opens up a new development direction for Vietnamese fruit in France and the EU. He noted although Vietnam has many canned fruit producers, only a modest volume of such products has been imported into France.
The lychee was imported by Tang Frères, the largest retail system, importer, and wholesale distributor of Asian food in France.
