PHNOM PENH (The Phnom Penh Post/Asia News Network): Fresh mango exporters say demand for mangoes from overseas markets, especially China, is beginning to recover, however mango production has declined in early 2023.

Hun Lak, CEO of Tropicam Fruit and Vegetable Co Ltd, one of the Kingdom’s largest mango exporters, said that in 2021 and 2022, mango prices fell due to Chinese lockdowns. He added that rising transportation costs were also a barrier to exports.
