HANOI (Vietnam News/Asia News Network): Vietnamese longan is welcomed in Japan although its retail prices are high, which brings a big opportunity for local farmers.

Nguyen Khac Huy, director of Hoang Phat Fruit Ltd Company based in the southern province of Long An, said that after its first batch of 10 tonnes of fresh longan was exported to Japan early this year, the company will continue exporting about 70-100 tonnes of the fruit by sea and by air to the market each month.
