(CNA, Tainan, 14th) - The "2026 Tainan Tropical Fruit and Agricultural Products International Procurement Day" was held today at the Shangri-La Far Eastern, Tainan, arranging for international buyers from 5 countries to interact with local businesses and distributors, hoping to establish a deeper foundation for cooperation and expand the export market for agricultural products.
Tainan Mayor Huang Wei-cher stated in his speech that today's procurement day event was jointly organized by the Ministry of Agriculture, the Tainan City Government, the International Trade Administration of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA). He thanked TAITRA for its strong support in bringing influential buyers from 5 countries—Canada, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, and Australia—to participate in in-depth discussions with local agricultural suppliers, helping Tainan's agricultural products connect with the international community.
Mayor Huang stated that promoting agricultural diplomacy should not only involve "going out" to participate in international food exhibitions but also inviting international buyers to "come in" to Tainan for face-to-face exchanges with local businesses and distributors, which can build a more solid foundation for cooperation.
Mayor Huang emphasized that the spirit of trade lies in two-way interaction of "give and take." While promoting the export of Tainan's high-quality agricultural products, the city also maintains an open attitude, welcoming excellent foreign products into the Taiwanese market to create mutual benefits and a win-win situation through positive international dialogue and trade.
The Tainan City Government's Agriculture Bureau provided information indicating that in addition to international buyers, a total of 37 businesses from all over Taiwan participated in the exhibition, including 12 from Tainan, showcasing the rich strength and industrial energy of Tainan as an agricultural hub. Special arrangements were also made for buyers to visit the headquarters of three representative businesses.
TAITRA pointed out that through procurement meetings and visits to production sites, it helps to enhance the exchange and connection between Taiwan's agriculture and the international market, and also enhances the brand image and overseas market visibility of Taiwanese fruits. In the future, TAITRA will continue to cooperate with the Tainan City Government to promote diverse marketing and production-sales cooperation models, assisting local farmers and businesses in expanding more overseas business opportunities.
