"Peru is a strategic partner for the Netherlands and ExpoAlimentaria is the best stage to showcase the products we can offer," stated the Peruvian director Eric García at the start of the seminar. In his eloquent speech, he stressed that of the 700 million dollars' worth of products exported from Peru to the Netherlands, 90% are agricultural products. "And we're not yet making the most of our full potential. Peru is a sustainable producing country by nature, and now, motivated by SIFAV 2020 (sustainable Initiative for Fruit and Vegetables in the Netherlands), we want to promote this approach."
