Biggest exporter of Hass avocados worldwide
For this year, the Peruvian company foresees a very similar export volume as compared to 2014, since the adult trees will be in an ‘off’ year due to the effect of alternation.
However, their volume will be compensated by more than 1,500 hectares of young
plantations that continue their growth process. The cultivation area destined to avocados in Peru is estimated to cover a total of than 22,000 hectares, of which CAMPOSOL accounts for 11%.
Also in 2015, the United States and Europe will continue to be the most important
markets for CAMPOSOL’s avocados. At the same time, the company will also look at other destinations like Chile, and the possible opening of markets like Japan and China might offer new opportunities.
Peru will continue with the promotion activities via ProHass, encouraging the sales of avocados on the major traditional markets as well as other markets that are considered of great potential, such as Germany.
Over the medium and long term, CAMPOSOL assumes that Peru will position itself as one of the principal export countries of Hass avocados in the world, with a growing
commercial window and a high quality product.
Hass is the most important avocado variety for CAMPOSOL. However, also for green skin avocados there will be demand in the market, be it in those moments where there is little offer of Hass or due to the preference of some specific market niches like Italy.
CAMPOSOL will have a booth at FRUIT LOGISTICA: Hall 25, booth C-20.
