Every day, more than 200 vehicles carrying fresh lychees from Bac Giang and Hung Yen provinces are cleared through this border gate.
According to a reporter from Saigon Giai Phong Newspaper, at the border gates in Lang Son province, currently, the amount of lychees from Bac Giang being processed for export to the Chinese market is also quite busy. Because this year, lychees and longans in the North suffered heavy crop failures, the market received good prices and consumption was open.
