Conference pear
The Conference is a juicy and soft pear with a sweet flavour, and it’s likely it will become quite popular among the Mexican population.
Exporter
The first Dutch exporter of pears to Mexico is FruitMasters. FruitMasters is a sales organisation with more than 400 affiliated fruit growers. FruitMasters is capable of supplying Dutch quality fruit directly from the source to (inter)national mercantile houses and retailers in part thanks to the member fruit growers.
