Benin is set to begin exporting its unique variety of pineapples to China, following a protocol signed with China last September and the completion of Chinese quarantine access. This comes as the China International Import Expo (CIIE) has provided support to least developed countries like Benin to enter the Chinese market with their specialty agricultural products. In just two months, the first batch of Benin pineapples, known as 'sweet bread', was exported to China, with more exports expected for Benin's cashew nuts and cotton. This achievement is seen as a significant step forward in China-Benin economic and trade cooperation, benefiting both countries.
