1. Introduction to Pineapple
Table of Contents
Pineapple is one of the country’s most vital tropical exports. Vietnam is home to several elite varieties, primarily grown in the nutrient-rich, acidic soils of the Mekong Delta (Tiền Giang, Kiên Giang) and the northern hilly regions.
At Vinahugo, we offer the two most prestigious varieties: the Queen Pineapple, known for its intense aroma, deep yellow flesh, and small size; and the MD2 Pineapple, famous for its high sugar content, low acidity, and exceptional juiciness. Our pineapples are harvested at the peak of ripeness to ensure they deliver a burst of tropical sunshine in every bite.
2. Product Varieties
-
Queen Pineapple: Characterized by its smaller size, fragrant aroma, and “crunchy” flesh. It has deep “eyes” and is exceptionally sweet.
-
MD2 (Golden Pineapple): A premium export variety with a bright yellow skin, cylindrical shape, and high brix level. It is less acidic than other varieties and has a long shelf life.
-
Canned Pineapple: Available in slices, chunks, or tidbits in heavy or light syrup.
-
Dried Pineapple (Soft-Dried): Dehydrated without added sugar to create a healthy, chewy snack that retains all the natural enzymes.
