European Commission tastes camu camu

Tholen - In event has been organised in Brussels, where members of the European Commision were given insight in the quality of fruit from the South-American Andes countries. With this presentation one hopes to convince the EC of the quality of fruit and exotics from the Andes, which reside under EU regulation number 258/97 of new food products and have great difficulty to get a foothold on the European market. Products like camu camu, lúcuma, maca, aguaymanto, maíz morado, uña de gato and algarrobina do have the attention of Peruvian exporters, but First they need to be integrated in the European regulations.
