Fuping persimmon cake is a specialty of Fuping County, Shaanxi Province, and a national geographical indication product of China. It is finely crafted through processes such as peeling, hanging, drying, kneading, and frosting. It has four characteristics: "sweet, soft, glutinous, and seedless". The meat is thick and creamy, and melts at the mouth, making it sweet to the heart. With the good color of "Persimmon and Persimmon", a series of products such as persimmon gift boxes, ice cream persimmon cakes, and persimmon sandwich are deeply loved by consumers. At present, Fuping County has a persimmon planting area of 360000 acres, an annual output of 280000 tons of fresh persimmons, 70000 tons of processed persimmon cakes, and an annual industrial chain output value of 6.5 billion yuan.

In order to help Fuping persimmon expand into the international trade market, Weinan Customs actively plans and cooperates, provides on-site guidance to enterprises, formulates personalized assistance plans, implements a "one-on-one" working mechanism for specialized personnel, and earnestly promotes food related regulations, standards, and customs supervision policies in Australia and other countries, guiding enterprises to accurately connect with the international trade market.

Access requirements help enterprises avoid foreign technological trade barriers and take the initiative in exporting. The customs has opened up a "green inspection channel" for characteristic fresh and perishable agricultural food products, implementing rapid response, "5+2" appointment, and priority inspection. In accordance with the requirements of the first export food supervision and inspection, safety and health project testing is carried out in a timely manner, and testing reports are issued as soon as possible. Once the requirements are met, certificates are quickly issued, effectively improving customs clearance efficiency, and promoting the export of Fuping persimmon cakes to international trade markets such as Australia, South Korea, and Thailand.

In order to gain a detailed understanding of the problems and difficulties faced by persimmon enterprises in the import and export process, Weinan Customs actively provides advice and suggestions to the local government, coordinates and solves problems such as land shortage and insufficient funds for enterprise expansion, and helps leading persimmon enterprises accelerate the construction of modern intelligent production lines. Establish the "Weihua Red Customs Propaganda Team", collaborate with departments such as commerce, taxation, and banking to deliver policies to over 60 enterprises, conduct customs business training, promote AEO certification cultivation, RCEP, and free trade agreement tax preferential policies, interpret customs policies and measures to promote foreign trade stability and quality improvement, help enterprises alleviate difficulties and reduce costs, encourage and support enterprises to grow and strengthen, and use the development of the persimmon industry to help rural revitalization. Yang Yifan, General Manager of Jinweng Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd., introduced: "In just three months, the company has sold over 900 tons of persimmons with a value of approximately 26 million yuan. The persimmon market is in short supply. Currently, the company has passed ISO9001 and HACCP certifications, and is expanding its standardized factory building to accept orders from Korean customers, further expanding the scale of the international trade market.

Next, Weinan Customs will fully, accurately, and comprehensively implement the new development concept, strengthen supervision and excellent services, timely coordinate and solve the prominent bottleneck problems that restrict the development of foreign trade, help Weinan characteristic agricultural products continue to be popular in the international trade market, and effectively transform learning, publicity, and implementation of the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China into vivid practices to promote the high-quality development and high-level opening up of local export-oriented economy, "said Li Yarong, the director of Weinan Customs.
