In Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, wholesalers note a less vibrant market scenario for 2024, particularly in the lead-up to the Lunar New Year, a time traditionally marked by high demand for imported fruits as gifts. The challenging economic conditions stemming from the indirect impact of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in notably slower sales for wholesalers compared to the previous year. Containers filled with apples from China, the United States (US), France, and Canada have remained unsold at the wholesale market for several days, reflecting the subdued market activity.
