Seasonal Availability of Key Dried Fruits in Vietnam: A Guide for Importers

Vietnam's tropical climate nurtures a wide variety of fruits throughout the year, making it an ideal location for dried fruit production. Understanding the seasonal availability of these fruits is crucial for importers and businesses looking to source high-quality produce for drying and export. This guide provides an overview of the peak seasons for some of the most popular fruits in Vietnam, ensuring optimal freshness and flavor in the dried products.


Seasonal Availability of Key Dried Fruits in Vietnam

 

Mango (Xoài)

Mangoes are one of Vietnam’s signature fruits, celebrated for their rich, sweet flavor. The best time for sourcing mangoes in Vietnam is from February to May in the southern regions, extending through September in the northern areas. This allows for the production of dried mangoes with intense flavor and high nutritional value.

Jackfruit (Mít)

Known for its distinctively sweet and fruity flavor, jackfruit has a relatively short peak season from April to July. During these months, the fruit reaches its optimal sweetness, making it an excellent candidate for drying.

Lotus seeds are typically harvested after the lotus flowering season, which peaks in the summer. The harvest season for lotus seeds usually occurs in late summer and early autumn, providing a unique option for dried fruit and nut markets.

Sweet Potato (Khoai lang)

Sweet potatoes in Vietnam are harvested primarily in two seasons: from October to November and from April to May. These periods are ideal for sourcing sweet potatoes that are perfect for drying, known for their sweet, starchy, and flavorful profile.

Pineapple (Dứa)

Pineapple thrives in Vietnam's tropical climate, with the best fruits available from May to September. Pineapples harvested during this time are larger, juicier, and sweeter, especially those grown in the southern parts of the country, ideal for drying into chewy, sweet treats.

Taro (Khoai môn)

While specific seasonal data for taro is not extensively documented, it is generally harvested twice a year—before the onset of the rainy seasons in early spring and late autumn. This timing ensures that the taro is at its freshest when processed for drying.
