Dulai Fruits in Raub, Pahang is one of the pioneers who started exporting durians to China.
The company produces paste and fruitlets, 90% of which is supplied to the China market.
The Malaysian Insight visited Dulai Fruit's orchard and processing facility to get a better picture of how durians are harvested and processed for export.
The biggest draw for the China market is the sweet and fleshy Musang King. The fruit which fetches a pretty price in the local market, doubles in price in China.
Consumers in China have found creative ways to use the fruit, including making pizza, durian hot pot and mooncakes out of the fruit.
