"Domestic sales are doing well, but we are having a harder time with export. For example, a country like Germany is first going to use up their own product. We can make up for this once the harvest is over in the other countries. The market is still a bit turbulent, and growers are busy selling their products so they can pay their pickers and empty their containers. Things will calm down once the harvest is behind us," continues Zweer.
According to Zweer, the quality of the top fruit is excellent, "Before the harvest last year the colors of our apples were not great. But now the color is great and we have access to much better quality than last year."
