In total, Sweet Grapes trades around 5 million kilos of grape per year. The present weather is not affecting produce that has still to be harvested. "For now the climate is not affecting the grape, since those cultivated in Valle del Vinalopó start blossoming by the end of this month", said Estrella Miralles from Sweet Grapes.
Regarding international prices, the red and white grapes are a bit lower than usual, but it's expected that these will rise. As for the price for red and white seedless grapes, Estrella commented that "they are inferior to last year's prices and a big rise is not expected".

Sweet Grapes wish to boost their exports to Asia, Arabic countries and in Europe they desire to have a bigger presence in Central European and Nordic countries.
