Summer mangoes and kiwi fruit from Guzhang county in east-central China and Tiandong in the south are rapidly filling regional export markets.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of August 15, 2025, Tiandong in the autonomous Guangxi region of south China was packing mango goodies to Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key export product is mango-aroma ice pops by the Tiandong Yisheng Import & Export Trade company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite churning out tonnes of concentrates daily, the juice processor cannot seem to make enough to bridge mounting demand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company\u2019s chairman Lin De\u2019en says production has escalated from hundreds of tonnes in 2024 to 3,000 tonnes this far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re on track to hit 5,000 tonnes<\/u><\/a>,\u201d Lin told China Daily in anticipation of full year shipping volume results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stimulating the sales momentum is great demand in Asian and Eurasian capitals including Seoul, Tokyo, Moscow and Astana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is Russia that is mattering the most with an export share of 60% of the firm\u2019s current ice pop range. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fujian and other local provinces however are getting double what Russia receives in ice pops through related products.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, around 6,000 tonnes of the company\u2019s purees and pulps end up in domestic markets, yearly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is no wonder then that many producers of these refreshments no longer worry about sales but about sufficient production.  China is traditionally famous for utilizing its major produce at home, which in July even prompted a national Ag consumption vision<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kiwi Fruit Shipping Northward<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While Tiandong is positioning itself via processed mangoes, east central China\u2019s Guzhang is shipping fresh kiwi fruit to Oman and Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guzhang\u2019s farmers were from August 8 sorting and packing \u201cMiliang No.1\u201d kiwis for shipping, per the Hunan Provincial Government<\/u><\/a>. Also sorting theirs are the neighboring Miao prefecture and Xiangxi Tujia in northeast and northwest Hunan, respectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just beforehand, Guzhang\u2019s farmers had sold 3.59 million yuan ($499,728) worth of kiwis to Moscow and Muscat through refrigerated logistics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides, the undulating hinterland has been using online merchandising sites such as Alibaba to help 500 small growers boost revenue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The county\u2019s government is also employing a private sector partnership program to up agricultural incomes, currently at 4,000 yuan ($530,000) per capita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to next for the 2025 summer specialty fruit campaign in two different counties of China? Skim through the following statistics to learn more about these regional mango and kiwi fruit centers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiandong and Guzhang Mango\/Kiwi Fruit\u00a0Statistics\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

South China\u2019s Tiandong county boasts 22,666 hectares<\/u><\/a> of mango groves, as of 2024. This is even as east central China\u2019s Guzhang county exports the much-sought \u201cmilliang no.1\u201d kiwi fruit. Regarding which, Guzhang\u2019s home province of Hunan is among the leading production hubs countrywide. Alongside Henan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Shaanxi provinces, it accounts for 90.3%<\/u><\/a> of the national kiwi fruit output, as of 2017. And yet, only 0.21%<\/u><\/a> of the 2017 national harvest made it into export markets due to high domestic demand.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where do mangoes grow most in Tiandong\u2019s home province?<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mangoes, on the other hand, are a major fruit in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region to which Tiandong county belongs. According to Antara News<\/u><\/a>, the region\u2019s capital area of Baise represented 24.19% of all mango acreage in China in 2023.  According to the government of China, Baise\u2019s total acreage was around 1.37 million mu<\/u><\/a> or 91,333 hectares in 2023. Baise also that same year harvested 1.25 million tonnes<\/u><\/a> of the fruit, representing 27.8% of China-wide production. China as a whole averages 3.8 million tonnes <\/u><\/a>of mangoes (2022), the third largest output worldwide after India and Indonesia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is China a major kiwi fruit hub?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

72% <\/u><\/a>of the world\u2019s kiwi fruit acreage is in China as well as 52-55% of the total output. In 2022, the country harvested 2.38 million tonnes<\/u><\/a> of the fresh fruit or 52.4% of the global harvest, according to Frontiers International.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
