Freeze-Dried Fruit from Vietnam, Managed from Farm to Container

FruitBuys Vietnam manages freeze-dried fruit supply for importers, food manufacturers and brand owners, from the orchard to the container seal. Our growing regions lie within about 500 km of Ho Chi Minh City, so fruit reaches the partner facility within a day of harvest. Production runs at qualified partner facilities, every lot is checked before it ships, and we prepare the export documents. Since 2019, buyers have dealt with one partner, one specification and one document set.

How we work

One Accountable Partner Across a Qualified Network

Buying direct from many small processors in Southeast Asia often brings grade drift between seasons, moisture variance and incomplete export paperwork. FruitBuys closes that gap on the ground in Vietnam.

Raw material across regions

We plan harvests across the Mekong Delta, the Southeast and the Central Highlands for fruit picked at peak ripeness: Ri6 and Monthong durian, Cat Chu mango, red-flesh dragon fruit, Queen pineapple and passion fruit. Several regions per fruit protect supply between harvest cycles.

On the ground

We work with farmer cooperatives, raw-material collectors and audited partner facilities across the Mekong Delta, the Southeast and the Central Highlands. Every export run follows a written FruitBuys specification, with FruitBuys QC staff on site during production and a FruitBuys release check before the goods leave.

Start small, then scale

Begin with a pilot run to test your market, then move to multi-container annual supply across our partner lines.

Total cost, not just unit price

A low price fails if moisture causes clumping on your dosing line or a container is held at destination. We write specifications around your line and your market to cut rework, downtime and claims.

Quality control

Three Layers of Quality Control

Repeat orders depend on checks at every handover, from orchard to container seal.

Raw material

Variety check, maturity and Brix at intake, defect sorting and washing. Pesticide residue testing follows the requirements of your destination market. Fruit reaches the facility within a day of harvest; mango, durian and other fruit that ripen after picking are held until they reach target Brix. Once peeled and cut, it is frozen the same day to hold its structure and aroma before freeze-drying.

Partner processing

Freeze-drying, milling, sieving and barrier packing take place at qualified partner facilities holding ISO 22000:2018, HACCP (Codex) and BRCGS Food Safety certification and US FDA Facility Registration. Packing lines run metal detection checked with ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless-steel test pieces. Halal certification is available on request.

Each product runs at a partner facility whose certificates cover that product scope, and we prepare the lot documents your destination market asks for: COA, certificate of origin, phytosanitary certificate and market-specific test reports.

FruitBuys lot release

  • Every lot: moisture, water activity, particle size for powders, and a sensory check of colour, crunch and aroma against your approved golden sample. Typical contract limits are moisture ≤5.0% and aw ≤0.30; release targets are tighter and set per SKU.
  • Microbiology: total plate count, yeast and mould, E. coli and Salmonella, tested by an accredited third-party laboratory at the frequency agreed in your contract.
  • Two-step lot release: the facility releases the lot first, then FruitBuys QC checks it against your approved sample and specification before the container is sealed. Third-party pre-shipment inspection (SGS, Intertek or Bureau Veritas) can be arranged on request.
  • Retained samples and documents: a sealed retained sample of every shipped lot is kept for the product’s stated shelf life, with a lot-coded COA, certificate of origin and a phytosanitary certificate where the destination requires one.

From our founder: discipline, lot after lot

“In food trade, a great first sample means little if the fifth container arrives with uneven cuts, drifting moisture or missing paperwork. I started FruitBuys Vietnam to give buyers clear access to Vietnam’s growing regions, with written specifications, straight answers and accountability for every lot.”

Udo Nguyen, Founder & CEO, FruitBuys Vietnam

How We Work with Importers & Brand Owners

Lot COA
Every lot, before release
Moisture and water activity are measured on the same sample for every lot. A lot that fails either does not ship, and the COA travels with the shipment.
Samples in 3–5 Days
By courier, against your specification
Samples leave in 3–5 working days by courier. Once you approve a sample, it becomes the reference every bulk lot is checked against.
From One Carton
Bulk or private label
Bulk orders start from one carton. Private label starts at 500 kg per SKU, and production takes 20–30 days per 20 ft container after deposit.
