As regards PGI products such as Patata della Sila IGP, however, Carli reports that "despite the difficult situation, they are doing well and are very much appreciated. Sales have increased by 10% and prices have remained in line with last year. This bodes well for the future, as we can reassure our producers that certified potatoes can guarantee sales and profits."
Patata della Sila is an excellent product holding the EU PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) mark.
As regards Fruit Logistica 2018, Carli reports they were rather pleased with their new stand Hall 2.2. "It was a good step forward with respect to our stand in City Cube in 2017. Berlin is the leading fair for our sector, as the entire fresh produce world attends. It was the perfect occasion to talk to our clients and get a feel of the latest trends."
