The fragrance of 'Persimmon Ruyi' wafts overseas

Winter is in full swing, and the Spring Festival is approaching. Thanks to the beautiful symbolism of "persimmons (everything goes well)" and the unique rich and sweet taste, persimmons and their products have been highly favored by consumers in overseas markets in recent years.

Recently, the warehouse of Qingdao Xinyubang Trading Co., Ltd. was bustling with activity. The workers are orderly stacking boxes of beautifully packaged persimmon cakes onto the transport truck, and then this batch of persimmon products worth 120000 yuan is about to embark on their overseas journey.

The company is a specialized enterprise in agricultural product trade, with strong supply chain integration capabilities and keen market insights, deeply cultivating and refining the field of agricultural product exports. Recently, its development focus will be on the export business related to persimmon cakes. Recently, overseas orders have increased, especially persimmon cakes, which are soft, sticky, sweet, and carry beautiful meanings. They are deeply loved by overseas Chinese and foreign friends, and everyone wants to taste this sweetness from China before the Spring Festival

To help enterprises seize this wave of export opportunities, Qingdao Dagang Customs, a subsidiary of Qingdao Customs, has launched a series of precise assistance "combination punches". Considering the high preservation requirements and tight customs clearance time of persimmon products, the customs has opened a "green channel". Enterprises can make appointments for customs clearance at any time according to their own export plans and logistics arrangements, ensuring the freshness and quality of the products to the greatest extent possible.

At the same time, the customs has established a technical trade measures research team to provide "one-on-one" precise guidance for enterprises based on the regulations and standards of different export destination countries. From food additive usage norms to label requirements, from pesticide residue limits to microbial index control, it helps enterprises improve their quality management system, effectively avoid overseas trade risks, and ensure worry free exports.

According to statistics, in the first 11 months of 2025, the amount of persimmon cakes declared for export by Qingdao Dagang Customs reached 4.5 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 42.7%, and the products were exported to multiple countries and regions such as New Zealand and Australia.

Next, Qingdao Dagang Customs will continue to focus on the needs of enterprises, innovate regulatory service models, play the role of "expert team+coordinator", establish a rapid response mechanism for difficult problems, comprehensively help enterprises seize market opportunities, promote the smooth sales of traditional specialty foods such as persimmon cakes overseas, and let this "Chinese sweetness" spread even further overseas.
