Vietnam have surpassed major mango exporters to China such as Thailand, Peru and Australia to capture an impressive 97% of China’s mango import market share in the first quarter of 2025, according to a report from the Vietnam News Agency.

This outstanding success is attributed to a combination of competitive pricing, consistent quality and timely supply.

According to data from Chinese Customs, China spent $29 million importing mangoes from six countries in the three-month period. While import values from traditional suppliers like Thailand and Peru dropped sharply, Vietnam emerged as the only bright spot, achieving a breakthrough, with nearly 40,700 tons of mangoes exported to China, generating $28 million in revenue -145 times more than the previous year.

Currently, nearly 2,000 ha of mango orchards in the Mekong Delta are certified under VietGAP and GlobalGAP standards, meeting food safety and traceability requirements - critical conditions for access to high-end markets such as China, the Republic of Korea, Japan and the US.
