The shipments were sold out to local distributors and will soon hit the shelves in Australia, said Uu Dam Vietnam company, the exporter.

The exportation of the fruit to Australia has been studied and bolstered by the Vietnam Trade Office in the Oceania country since 2020.

However, Australia has yet to open its door to fresh avocado from Vietnam.

The office said Vietnam’s avocado holds huge export potential to the Australian market thanks to its competitive prices and high quality.

In the coming time, the Embassy of Vietnam in Australia will join hands with the national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines to roll out a programme aiming at building brand and boosting exports of frozen avocado to Australia
