BEIJING: Malaysia will start exporting fresh durians to China , opening up a vast market for the spiky, smelly fruit in the world’s second-largest economy, although traders are worried about logistical challenges. China ’s appetite for durian has soared in recent years, with customers paying top dollar for Malaysia ’s signature Musang King variety and developing a taste for durian-flavoured confectionery.
The world’s second-biggest durian exporter after Thailand was previously allowed to ship only the whole frozen fruit and other durian-based products to China.A durian exporter based in Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur said preparations are being made to ship fresh durians, although there are worries of tough competition from cheaper Thai and Vietnamese varieties.
Anna Teo, director of exporter Hernan Corp, said the industry must overcome these logistical challenges before it can fully tap the Chinese market.
