Shanghai grapes have recently made their debut on the Thai market. For the first time ever, grapes produced in Shanghai were exported to a country along the Belt and Road routes.

After being inspected by the Fengxian Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, the first batch of grapes, weighing 160 kilograms in all and produced in Shanghai’s Fengxian District, was allowed to enter Thailand, marking a breakthrough in the city’s history of table grapes’ exportation. 

According to sources, the grapes will later on be displayed for sale in Bangkok’s high-end supermarkets, offering Thai consumers an opportunity to taste Shanghai grapes.

The grapes exported to Thailand are produced by Xinxin, a brand that is affiliated to Shanghai’s leading food supplier Bright Food Group and runs an organic grape plantation in Fengxian.  

As a famous trademark in Shanghai, Xinxin has applied the latest green technology to its fruit production. As it uses natural fertilizers instead of chemical agents, the brand enjoys a high reputation in the industry.
