Vietnamese dragon fruit is not only an iconic tropical fruit but also one of the country’s leading export commodities. At Great Farmer, dragon fruit is primarily harvested from VietGAP/GlobalGAP-certified partner farms in Binh Thuan and Long An provinces.

• Varieties: Red Flesh and White Flesh.

2.2. Mango

Mango is a fruit that delivers exceptionally high added value thanks to its distinctive tropical flavor. Great Farmer carefully selects some of the most renowned mango varieties from the Mekong Delta, such as Keo Mango.

• Characteristics & Nutrition: Great Farmer’s mangoes feature a golden-yellow skin when fully ripe (or a glossy green skin for markets that prefer green mangoes for salads), thick flesh, low fiber content, and a small seed. The Brix level of ripe mangoes ranges from 15% and above, delivering a balanced sweet and slightly sour taste during the ripening stage, and a rich sweetness with an intense aroma when fully ripe.

• Packaging Specifications: Each fruit weighs 400–600 g, meeting export standards. Every mango is carefully wrapped in protective foam and neatly arranged in 10 kg carton boxes to provide maximum protection against mechanical damage during transportation. Mangoes are also the primary raw material for the company’s value-added processed products, including IQF Mango (Individually Quick Frozen) and Mango Puree.

2.3. Seedless Lime

Seedless lime (Citrus latifolia) is one of the company’s fastest-growing export products, particularly sought after in the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia) and the EU markets.

• Export Specifications: The fruit is uniform in size, with a diameter of 5.5–6.0 cm (equivalent to 12–20 fruits/kg).

• Packaging & Storage: The product is pre-cooled immediately at the processing facility and packed in ventilated 4 kg, 7 kg, or 10 kg carton boxes. To maintain maximum freshness and preserve its green color during long sea voyages, the container temperature is maintained at 8°C–12°C.

2.4. Banana

Cavendish bananas grown on an industrial scale in Vietnam are a highly stable product with a year-round supply. Great Farmer’s banana products are highly favored by partners in Japan, South Korea, and Malaysia.

• Quality Characteristics: The bananas are harvested at 75%–85% maturity (emerald-green peel). When ripe, the fruit develops a bright yellow color with soft, aromatic flesh and a minimum Brix level of 16%. The peel is completely free from black spots, scratches, and insect damage.

• Packaging Specifications: The bananas are packed in hands (4–6 hands/carton), with neatly trimmed stalks and thoroughly treated to remove latex. They are packed in perforated PE bags and placed in sturdy locking carton boxes with a net weight of 13.5 kg. The ideal storage temperature is 13°C–14°C, which helps inhibit premature ripening.

2.5. Coconut

Vietnamese Fresh Green Coconut is an excellent natural beverage, renowned for its refreshing taste and 100% natural coconut water. Great Farmer primarily exports two product types: Diamond Shape Coconut and Bald Coconut (Polish Shape).

• Standard Characteristics: Each coconut is carefully selected to weigh 800–1,200 g per fruit. It contains an abundant 250–300 ml of coconut water. In particular, the sweetness of the coconut water is guaranteed to reach 8.5% Brix, an ideal natural sugar level for healthy beverages.

The coconuts are packed in carton boxes containing 9 fruits per carton and transported at a controlled temperature of 2°C–5°C.

2.6. Guava

Guava, commonly including Taiwan Pear Guava, Queen Guava, and Red-Flesh Guava, grown in Vietnam offers outstanding advantages in crispness, sweetness, and low seed content.

• Nutrition: Guava is known as the “King of Vitamin C” (containing four times more vitamin C than oranges). It is also rich in dietary fiber and potassium, making it a trending product among health-conscious consumers.

• Export Specifications: The fruit has a well-balanced shape, a smooth and glossy skin, and is free from insect bites and blemishes. The average weight ranges from 300–500 g per fruit. Each guava is individually wrapped in foam netting and plastic film to preserve moisture, then neatly packed in plastic crates or 10 kg carton boxes. The recommended storage temperature is 5°C–8°C.

2.7. Chili

As one of Great Farmer’s pioneering strategic products and one of the company’s highest-volume export commodities, Vietnamese chili has established its position thanks to its distinctive pungency, attractive appearance, and abundant year-round supply, generating significant export revenue for Great Farmer.

• Characteristics: The company primarily exports Fresh Red Chili. The chilies have a slender shape and are graded into standard sizes of 3–5 cm, 5–7 cm, and 7–9 cm. They feature a naturally bright red color, while the impurity rate and defective fruit rate are strictly controlled at below 1%.

• Storage & Packaging:

  • Fresh Chili: The stems are kept intact and fresh green. The product is packed in plastic baskets with a net weight of 6 kg and a gross weight of 6.5–7 kg. It is transported at 2°C–5°C to maintain its crispness throughout long-distance transportation.

  • Frozen Chili: The product is deep-frozen at -18°C, allowing a storage life of 9–24 months without affecting its color or pungency.

• Description: Available in three primary colors: Red, Yellow, and Green. The peppers have thick, smooth, glossy, and crisp flesh, with a high content of vitamins A and C. The flesh is firm and free from softness or shriveling.

• Packaging Specifications: Each pepper has a uniform weight of 150–250 g per fruit. The product is packed in 5 kg carton boxes with protective dividers to prevent bruising during transportation. The recommended storage temperature is 7°C–10°C to prevent skin wrinkling caused by moisture loss.

2.9. Sweet Potato

Sweet potatoes, particularly Japanese Purple Sweet Potato and Yellow/Orange Sweet Potato, grown in Southern Vietnam and the Central Highlands are experiencing a golden era of exports. In 2022, the signing of the Protocol between the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam (MARD) and the General Administration of Customs of China (GACC) officially opened the door for large-scale exports of this product through official trade channels. Great Farmer quickly seized this opportunity, making sweet potatoes one of its key export products.

• Quality: The sweet potatoes are cultivated on fertile basalt red soil and alluvial soil, producing smooth, clean tubers that are free from rough skin, pest damage, and pesticide residues. The standard export weight ranges from 150–400 g per tuber.

• Processing Procedure: After harvesting, the sweet potatoes undergo a curing process to naturally heal minor surface scratches and increase their natural sugar content. They are then thoroughly washed using a high-pressure water system to remove soil and packed in mesh bags or perforated 10–20 kg carton boxes.

2.10. Beetroot

Playing an important role in Great Farmer’s nutritious vegetable portfolio, beetroot grown on the company’s farms in Da Lat is consistently among the products most sought after by international importers.

• Characteristics: The beetroot has a deep purple-red color due to its high betacyanin content, which is beneficial for cardiovascular health and blood pressure. Great Farmer’s beetroot features firm flesh, low fiber content, a distinctive earthy sweetness, and a uniform round shape.

• Standard Specifications: The leaves and long roots are trimmed, and all soil residue is carefully removed. Each beetroot weighs 200–400 g. The product is packed in 10 kg carton boxes and stored at 0°C–2°C (cold storage) to maintain its firmness and freshness.
