This is mainly due to the unique growing environment, which has created characteristics such as a rich aroma and a thin skin. Currently, a large number of autumn fruits are on the market. Among the various seasonal fruits we supply, such as honey pomelo, apple, grape, etc., sales of the Guanxi honey pomelo are particularly good,” said Susan from Xiamen Kamena Trade Co., Ltd.
“In terms of output, driven by the strong demand, the planting area of honey pomelo has increased in the past two years. On the other hand, due to the extreme climate, the yield per mu has decreased. Under the combined effect of the two, compared with last year, the total output of honey pomelo this year has increased slightly, and there have been few changes. The price is relatively stable. Compared with the previous period, the current price has decreased, which is in accordance with the trend of price changes in most agricultural products. That is: the price of the fruit during the listing period is lower than the price at the beginning and end of the season."
"At this stage, our honey pomelo is also exported to other countries and regions, including the United Kingdom, Poland, France, Canada and especially Russia. where the annual shipments reach 100-200 containers. As a large-scale agro-industrial enterprise integrating fruit cultivation, processing and export, we also supply other fruit and vegetable products such as apples, pears, oranges, kiwis, grapes, carrots, ginger, garlic, onions, etc. in addition to honey pomelo.
