Tien Giang, a province in the Mekong Delta region of southern Vietnam, serves as a crucial gateway to Ho Chi Minh City and is strategically positioned between the Southern Key Economic Zone and the Mekong Delta. It also boasts a long coastline ideally suited for aquatic breeding and sea-based agriculture. The climate here is consistent with the tropical monsoon climate of the rest of the Mekong Delta, whose temperature is high and stable all year round, with the year distinctly divided into wet and dry seasons. Tien Giang is renowned for its abundant fruit production, including durian, jackfruit, pineapple, and rambutan. With 73,000 hectares of orchards—the largest in the country—the province yields approximately 1.4 million tonnes of fruit annually. There have been efforts to create geographical indications for the region's fruit, akin to the European Union's system for wine, cheeses, and other geographically distinct food products.
