VGP - The first container of the 2018 Vietnamese lychee arrived in Malaysia on Monday and was eagerly received by consumers.

The batch was imported by Billyan Global Resources Company (in Kuala Lumpur) and Viet Nam’s Ha Noi Trade Corporation (Hapro).

Director of Billyan Global Resources Company William Tan said he had sampled the lychee and found that the lychee was very succulent and delicious, so he wants to introduce the fruit in Malaysia and believes that Malaysian consumers will like it.

Billyan Global Resources ordered more Vietnamese lychees for Kuala Lumpur and surrounding areas after seeing sales take off on the first day. 

In the time ahead, an additional 20 containers, each weighing nearly 10 tons, will be shipped to Malaysia.

Apart from Malaysia, Vietnamese lychees have also been present in several demanding markets such as the U.S., Australia, Japan, and Europe.
