Vietnam has a strong agricultural production sector, with key products such as durian, dragon fruit, mango, lychee, and longan. However, preservation and logistics remain major challenges, causing significant difficulties for businesses and farmers. In reality, post-harvest losses in Vietnam are still high, transportation costs are substantial, and export markets are imposing increasingly stringent quality requirements.
Given this situation, CASS (Controlled Atmosphere Storage System) offers a comprehensive solution that extends the shelf life of agricultural products, minimizes losses, and optimizes the supply chain. In addition to providing advanced preservation technology, CASS helps businesses take greater control of their export processes, avoiding price suppression due to the pressure of quick sales.
CURRENT STATE OF VIETNAM’S AGRICULTURAL LOGISTICS – UNRESOLVED CHALLENGES
Statistics show that Vietnam exports billions of dollars worth of agricultural products each year, yet it still faces numerous obstacles in preservation and transportation. Some major issues include:
🔹 High spoilage rates: Due to suboptimal storage conditions, post-harvest losses can reach up to 30% during transportation and distribution.
🔹 Price suppression during peak harvest seasons: Perishable products have short shelf lives, forcing farmers to sell quickly, making them vulnerable to price manipulation by traders.
🔹 High logistics costs: Without effective preservation technology, many businesses are forced to use air freight for fresh agricultural exports, significantly increasing transportation costs.
🔹 Stricter quality requirements: Major markets such as the U.S., EU, and China impose increasingly stringent import standards, requiring businesses to adopt advanced preservation solutions to maintain product quality.
These challenges put Vietnam’s agricultural sector at risk, impacting profitability and global competitiveness. To address these issues, CASS has introduced cutting-edge preservation technology that extends product freshness and optimizes the supply chain.
