Moldovan apples sold in over 30 countries worldwide
Chisinau, July 16 /MOLDPRES/- Moldovan producers have exported 133 thousand tons of apples from the 2023-2024 harvest. They reached more than 30 countries of the world. The volume of exports increased compared to the season 2022 - 2023, when 124 thousand tons sold on foreign markets. Exports to the EU practically doubled, reaching 22 thousand tons, the main destination being Romania with a share of 90%. The figures were presented today by Moldova Fruct Association, which marked the end of the apple export season.
Apple export to the Middle East increased from 6146 thousand tons in the 2022-2023 season to 8085 thousand tons in the 2023-2024 season.
At the same time, while in the 2022-2023 season, 85% of all apples exported from Moldova reached the countries of the Eurasian Union, the market has managed to diversify, and now this share has decreased to 77%.
