Retailer Intimex officially sells Japanese Aomori apples
The supermarket chain, Intimex, plans to start selling Japanese Aomori apples on December 18, said an Intimex representative.
This is the first imported products of Intimex in its strategy of importing clean products with high quality and clear origins.
Dinh Tien Thanh, general director of Intimex Vietnam JSC, said the company spent almost two years working with the authorities of Aomori prefecture and exporters, supervising the process of planting the apples to harvesting and packaging to bring the truly Aomori apples to Vietnamese customers.
The apples are also scheduled to be sold at Big C and Unimart stores.
Aomori prefecture is a famous apple growing region in Japan, providing 50 percent of the total volume of Japanese apples.
