According to the Plant Protection Department under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Vietnam has exported nearly 200 tonnes of mango to the US so far. T
he mangoes were grown in Đồng Tháp, An Giang, Tiền Giang, Vĩnh Long, Cần Thơ, and Sơn La.
The first batch encountered some problems as the mangoes were too ripe and some were spoiled when they arrived, but the problem did not persist in following batches.
Vietnamese mangoes were delivered by both air and sea routes.
