In the first two months of 2025, China exported 110,000 tons of fresh fruits and vegetables through the Khorgos border crossing in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, marking a 46.2% year-on-year increase, according to Khorgos Customs.
Khorgos, located on the border between China and Kazakhstan, serves as a key gateway for perishable agricultural exports. The primary importers of these products are neighboring countries, including Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Russia. To facilitate smooth customs clearance and ensure the freshness of fruits and vegetables, a "green corridor" was established for agricultural exports.
"As this is the peak season for fruit and vegetable exports, our company is dispatching over 70 trucks daily. Since the beginning of the year, we have already exported 60,000 tons of fresh produce, with trade volumes reaching 1 billion yuan (approximately $139 million)," said a representative of a local international trade company.
