The lychee trees can also be found in Singapore and the most famous one is the large tree of 18 meters high located along Mt Rosie Road (the Singapore National Parks Board has chosen this tree for preservation under the Heritage Trees Scheme).

For many years, thanks to the application of VietGAP and GlobalGAP processes, the cultivation of lychee in Vietnam is now standardized. Lychee cultivation areas in Vietnam are granted specific codes for export. All these areas are monitored to control the cultivation process and do traceability. The traceability stamp allows customers to easily check and track lychee products when buying lychee from Vietnam. Thanks to these efforts, Vietnam’s lychees are gradually gaining the recognition from international buyers as the best lychees in the world.
Since 2020, Vietnam’s lychees have been exported to Singapore during May-July season by NTUC FairPrice. Let’s celebrate together the Duanwu Festival (May5th in lunar calendar) – a convivial time for family gatherings – and enjoy Vietnamese Lychee – a fruit to enhance traditional values and to tighten family links.
