Australian peaches and nectarines promoted in Vietnam market
Australian peaches and nectarines are currently available in supermarkets and fruit stores in Vietnam, such as: MM Mega Market, AEON, Big C/GO!/Tops Market, WinMart, KingFood Mart, Thuy Anh Fruits, F5 Fruit Shop, Luon Tuoi Sach, An Nam, AEON, Co.op Mart, etc.
Frank Frappa, Director of Summerfruit Australia Limited, said: “In March 2022, Australia gained access to the Vietnam market for the supply of peaches and nectarines; some very small trial shipments were made to ensure we could meet the required protocol and, most importantly, deliver a great experience when eating our stone fruit; this was a fantastic achievement between our two countries.”

Australian summerfruit is produced in approximately 26 regions across the country. Victoria and New South Wales are the largest producing regions followed by South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia, and Tasmania. Production has risen by approximately 25 percent over the last decade and 400 growers now produce over 125,000 tonnes per annum (according to 2022 industry report).
Thanks to the unique micro-climates across Australia and its rich soils, Australia’s warm climate and hot, dry summers promote sweeter, juicier summer stonefruit. Also, its proximity to Asia enables lower freight costs, better access to fresh markets in the region; As well as preserving the flavorsome process from farm straight to consumer's hands.
The Australian Summer Fruits industry is committed to producing superior fruits under the strictest quality standards and using innovative eco-friendly farming practices. This guarantees that all stoned fruits will remain at a temperature of 0-2 degrees Celsius throughout the cold storage process after harvest, shipping, and stored at 8-25 degrees Celsius when it comes to consumer's hands to maintain the freshness, crispness, and quality when they arrive in Vietnam.
Peaches are recognised by their velvety or fuzzy skin, which is commonly yellow and red, or red and white. Peach flesh also ranges in colour from white to rich orange, depending on the variety, but is grouped into white or yellow varieties. Ripe peaches have delicate aroma and may give slightly under gentle pressure. Like nectarines, peaches can be categorised as either freestone (flesh falling away from the pit) or clingstone (the flesh clings to the pit). Nectarines, or ‘nectar of the Gods’, are a variety of peaches with a smooth yellow, orange or red skin and either white or yellow juicy flesh. Yellow nectarines can taste both sweet and tart, while white nectarines are sweet while still being firm and crunchy. Both types will express more juice as the fruit softens. Nectarine flesh is highly aromatic and very juicy when ripe.
