    S.
    Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) signed a plan to export Vietnamese pomelo to the United States, making grapefruit the seventh fruit
    approved for export to the United States, one of the world's most demanding markets, according to a reporter from the U.
    S.
    News Agency in the United States.
     
    Vietnam's first two-ton fresh grapefruit was exported to the United States, which fully demonstrates the credibility, quality and professionalism of Vietnamese producers, exporting enterprises and regulatory agencies in meeting the requirements of US food safety and phytosanitary and other aspects
    .
     
    In addition to dragon fruit, mango, longan, lychee, rambutan and milk fruit, Penang Tre Green Pomelo is the first pomelo brand
    selected by US distributors to import into the US market.
    In the first phase, supermarkets in parts of Washington, D.
    C.
    , Maryland, Virginia and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, will be stocked with pomelo
    from Penacon.
     
    At present, Vietnam has a national pomelo planting area of 105,400 hectares, with an annual output of nearly 90,500 tons, rich varieties and local characteristics
    .
     
    The United States is a potential market for a variety of fruit products, with an annual demand of 12 million tons
    of fruit.

    for Vietnamese grapefruit and even various fruits to enter the US market.

    to announce the first batch of Vietnamese pomelo exports to the United States.
