EU-Grade DRAGON FRUIT from Vietnam

Vietnam is rapidly cementing its position as a reliable, high-quality source for premium dragon fruit, specifically targeting the lucrative and highly demanding European market. With strict adherence to international food safety standards and a commitment to quality from farm to air freight, Vietnamese growers are ready to meet the diverse needs of European importers.

A niche market demands specific quality & size

The European market, while highly competitive, offers stable and attractive pricing for Vietnamese dragon fruit, ranging from 25,000–29,000 VND/kg for white-flesh and 28,000–35,000 VND/kg for red-flesh varieties.

A key insight into the European demand is the preference for specific fruit sizes:

• General European Consumers (e.g., France, Czech Republic, Germany, Sweden): Prefer smaller, medium-sized fruit, typically around 300 grams per piece (approximately 10 fruits per 3 kg box). These are primarily sold to local, non-Asian European consumers.
• Specialized Markets (e.g., The Netherlands): Require larger fruits, often meticulously packed individually, catering to specific customer groups like the Asian community.

The majority of these shipments are high-value air cargo, underscoring the necessity for products that meet impeccable quality and standard compliance.

Zero tolerance for residue: The most critical requirement

The single most important factor for any product destined for Europe is the strict compliance with Maximum Residue Limits (mrls). Products must be free from pesticide residues and meet stringent certifications such as Global GAP or equivalent standards.

To ensure this compliance, Vietnamese exporters rely on reputable, independent verification centers, such as Hoang Vu and SGS, to test products thoroughly before granting export approval.

Rigorous production process

Exporters follow a meticulous, documented process to guarantee MRL-free delivery:

• Pre-Harvest Sampling: When the dragon fruit is nearing ripeness, the company proactively takes random samples from the farm.
• Sealed Testing: Samples are sealed and dispatched to accredited laboratories for MRL testing, with the process carefully documented in the farm’s logbook.
• MRL Clearance: After approximately three days, if the product successfully passes the non-residue test, harvesting is authorized.
• Cleaning and Sorting: Harvested dragon fruit is brought to the warehouse for classification and thorough cleaning. Crucially, the fruit is washed with clean water to ensure the removal of any external contaminants that could affect quality.
• Premium Packaging: European export fruit is often individually wrapped in foam mesh sleeves and packed into small cartons. A common carton size is 375*290*110 cm (3kg net).
• Essential Documentation: Each carton is meticulously labeled with the fruit size, net weight, and, most importantly, a Lot Code. This code, along with flight details, is essential for airport and import clearance procedures.

Export documentation checklist for smooth import

A comprehensive documentation package is prepared for every shipment, ensuring swift customs and import procedures:

• Hygiene and Food Safety Certificate: Certification for the processing facility or equivalent quality standard documents.
• HC-HV Certificate (Health Certificate): Signed by the Provincial Sub-department of Food Safety and Hygiene.
• Air Waybill (AWB): Proof of the number of packages and total weight.

Once all documentation is finalized, the certified cargo is consolidated and transported to the airport, ready for its journey to European ports.
