The Australian Asian vegetable industry is a dynamic, growing horticultural sector whose products
appeal to Australian consumers. The industry has more than doubled in production value and grower
numbers since 1995. It has also doubled its share of total Australian horticultural production. Many
of the industry’s products are on the verge of becoming mainstream staples and product is available
