Varieties Fuji Load ports Qingdao, Shanghai, and Shenzhen
Shandong and Shaanxi harvest from September, the export peak runs from October into the new year, and stored fruit ships through the spring. Fuji is most of what leaves.
The destinations are Southeast and South Asia rather than Europe — Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, Bangladesh — on lanes of one to three weeks. Chinese and American apples are chasing the same buyers in the same months, and it is price rather than season that settles it.
