According to Provid’s first estimate for 2021-2022, Peruvian table grape exports are expected to grow 9 percent, reaching 62.5 million boxes.
According to Provid, Peru’s diversified market reach and attractive varieties strengthen its position.
As a result of joint efforts with SENASA, export opportunities are increasing, with the Japanese market expected to open soon and the Chinese market in the works.
“As Peru is the second exporter of table grapes in the world, Provid is responsible for delivering key information that allows suppliers, markets and others to manage volumes in the most sustainable way, compatible with existing resources and anticipating those that will be needed,” stated by Manuel Yzaga, President of Provid.
In his view, the challenge is to produce grapes that provide the best possible economic returns, and this is made even more difficult by the complex environment we find ourselves in due to the global pandemic.
“Shipping companies, logistics agents, SENASA, among others, must be able to absorb growth efficiently and effectively. We owe ourselves to those who allow us to bear the costs of production and export, explicitly to the market”, he added.
November through April is Peru’s grape export season.
