Tea trees are broadly known as a key crop for poverty reduction, even enriching residents in remote and mountainous areas.
In addition, they serve to cover uncultivated lands and bare hills, protecting environment.
So far, Vietnamese tea products are available in over 110 countries and territories. Especially, the brand name of “CheViet” (Vietnamese tea) has been registered in 70 national and regional markets.
Việt Nam now ranks the fifth in terms of tea productivity and export revenue, after China, India, Sri Lanka and Kenya.
To realize the set target, the sector is sparing no effort to carry out a sustainable strategy to modernize its processing industry, improve productivity and quality, and provide tea products of high quality and acceptable price.
Moreover, the sector will renew processing lines and technologies to ensure quality and food hygiene as well as figure out tastes of customers. Hence, made-in-Việt Nam tea products can be introduced to more international markets, such as German, Netherlands, Poland, and Saudi Arabia.
