On June 15, the 22nd China (Guangxi) Lychee and Longan Production and Marketing Matchmaking Event and the 2024 Guangxi Lingshan Lychee Cultural Tourism Festival opened in Lingshan county, organized by the agricultural authorities of Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian, and Hainan.
The event brought together 27 planting enterprises, cooperatives, and large-scale growers from 14 major lychee and longan producing counties, cities, and districts in Guangxi, along with a total of 29 lychee and longan production, processing, and distribution enterprises from Guangdong, Fujian, and Hainan provinces, as well as representatives of distribution enterprises from Henan, Jiangsu, Beijing, and other regions for product exhibitions, promotions, and marketing negotiations.
