Phnom Penh: Mr. Khim Finan, Undersecretary of State and Spokesperson of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, on July 25, 2026, presided over the inauguration ceremony of the first shipment of fresh durian, consisting of three containers (approximately more than 50 tons) from Pechenda Fruit Production Co., Ltd. to the Chinese market via the land transport route through Laos.
Exports of fresh durian from Cambodia to the Chinese market have soared to 5,738 tons (as of the first 7 months of 2026), an increase of nearly 40 times compared to the total export volume in 2025.
This achievement is the fruit of the active efforts of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries In coordination, the opening of a new land transport port through Laos can reduce the transport time to only 5 days, compared to the 15-20 days required for water transport.
Please note that although it has only recently been launched, this new export port is contributing to the absorption of almost 10% of the total durian exports to the Chinese market in 2026.
