Avocados growers in West Australia have successfully sent a shipment to Thailand for the first time in 10 years.

It’s a very promising market to be apart of, last year Thailand imports were at 1, 575 tonnes, valued at more than 12 million dollars .

We haven’t sent any avocados since 2013 after Thailand introduced protocols.

Rural Reporter Georgia Kondek caught up with Avocados Australia Chief Executive John Tyas says to chat about this great achievement for the industry
