The guavas were sourced from orchards in Dong Mai residential area, Phuong Son Ward, where growers follow safe farming practices under the supervision of the provincial Sub-Department of Cultivation and Plant Protection.
Authorities monitored the entire production process, from cultivation and pesticide use to harvesting, processing and packaging.
Prior to export, R.Y.B Joint Stock Company, a Hanoi-based exporter and distributor, coordinated with agricultural authorities to test pesticide residue levels in accordance with UK import regulations. All indicators were found to be within permitted limits.
To maintain freshness during transportation, the fruit underwent strict preservation and export-standard packaging procedures.
