Driven by the global trend of health consumption, blueberries have become a "star category" in cross-border trade due to their rich nutritional value. In 2025, China's frozen blueberry will emerge as a rising star in the international market with multiple advantages such as capacity upgrading, technological breakthroughs, and policy empowerment. They will achieve a leapfrog improvement in both industry scale and quality standards, becoming a vivid example of China's modern agriculture "going global".
The scale of production capacity and diversification of production areas have laid the foundation for competitive advantages in foreign trade. By 2025, the planting area of blueberries in China is expected to exceed 1.58 million mu, with a total output of 900000 tons. Among them, the capacity for quick freezing processing has doubled compared to the previous year, setting a new historical high. Yunnan, with its natural advantage of a frost free period throughout the year, has become the world's largest blueberry supply base, with frozen processed fruit production accounting for nearly 30% of the country's total; Relying on the advantage of being a cold chain hub in Northeast Asia, Dandong, Liaoning focuses on the high-end markets of Japan and South Korea; Emerging production areas such as Mengzi and Nujiang in Yunnan have continued to expand their export share through the construction of standardized planting bases. This pattern of "main production areas leading and multi regional collaboration" not only ensures a stable supply of raw materials for frozen blueberry, but also creates economies of scale, reducing export costs by more than 12% compared to South American main production countries and taking the initiative in price competition.
Technological innovation and quality upgrading have built core competitiveness. The competitiveness of Quick-frozen blueberry in foreign trade is essentially a competition of quality control capabilities across the entire chain. By 2025, China has established a three-level cold chain system from picking to shipping. A vacuum pre cooling station must be set up within 500 meters of the orchard, which can lower the core temperature to 1 ℃ within 30 minutes. The temperature control fluctuation in the circulation process is less than 0.3 ℃, ensuring that the integrity of the fruit powder when the product reaches the international market reaches 98%. In the processing stage, the popularization of AI sorting lines has achieved precise screening of the diameter and sugar content of each blueberry, meeting the strict standard of 0.5mm diameter error in the Japanese market; The application of blockchain traceability system allows consumers to scan the code to view the entire process information such as pesticide application and quality inspection reports, breaking through the trust barriers in the international market. With the support of advanced technology, the pesticide residue qualification rate of Quick-frozen blueberry in China has remained at 100% for three consecutive years, and has obtained GAP certification in multiple mainstream markets worldwide.
The foreign trade advantage of China's Quick-frozen blueberry in 2025 is a concentrated manifestation of modern agricultural industrialization, standardization, and internationalization. From intelligent planting in the fields to cold chain sailing in ports, this' blue gold 'fruit carries not only the hope of industrial value-added, but also the confidence for Chinese agriculture to participate in global competition. In the future, with the continuous deepening of technological innovation and global cooperation, Chinese Quick-frozen blueberry will surely write a more exciting chapter of going global in the international market.
