Rockin' the Coconut Sugar Scene: Tra Vinh's 5-Star OCOP-Rated Organic Coconut Sugar Heads to the US
U.S.-bound shipment of Trà Vinh's organic OCOP coconut sugar inaugurated
In the heart of the Mekong Delta, Tra Vinh province has made a splash with its first export of nonpareil 5-star OCOP-certified organic coconut sugar to the US. Weighing a whopping 7 tonnes, this scrumptious shipment is set to kickstart a sugar rush in the health-conscious market!
Let's break down the behind-the-scenes magic of how this liquid gold is born. It's all about fresh coconut flower nectar - over eight litres of it, to be exact, to create just one kilogramme of that delectable organic coconut sugar you'll be savoring. The nectar undergoes a gentle transformation using advanced low-temp tech, preserving every last drop of its natural minerals and nutrients. Talk about keeping it real!
So, why all the fuzz? This sugar ain't your typical run-of-the-mill stuff. It's perfect for that health-conscious crew seeking a guilt-free sweet fix. Think energy bars, health-conscious bakery goodies, and everything in between - it'll be the secret ingredient that'll make them pop!
The mastermind behind this sugar sensation is Sokfarm, the Tra Vinh FARM Co., Ltd, a company founded in 2019. They manage a snazzy 20-hectare organic-certified coconut plantation that caters to the USDA, EU, JAS, and Canada Organic standards. Impressive, right?
Sokfarm has six core coconut products in their line-up, all certified 4- or 5-star under Vietnam's One Commune One Product (OCOP) program. They partner with 35 local farming households to source that unbeatable raw nectar. A quick glance at their portfolio reveals exports to Japan, the Netherlands, Germany, the US, and Australia. Yep, they're rockin' the global scene!
When it comes to the agricultural landscape of Tra Vinh province, 393 OCOP-certified goods, including three 5-star and 46 4-star ones, are a testament to its farming prowess. Post-certification, the annual output and revenue of these goods have skyrocketed by 30-60% and 20-52%, respectively. Keep it up, Tra Vinh!
The province's future agricultural plans include a focus on primo coconut farming and the expansion of specialty goods. Their strategy to boost the value of indigenous resources through innovative farming initiatives couldn't be more on point!
This first shipment to the US is a monumental achievement for Tra Vinh's agricultural and export efforts. Market response has been excellent, with the products being a hit in the nutritional food sector. Here's to more sweet success stories! 🍰🍯🔥😄
