Belgium: “National production cherries annual decrease”

According to Jackie Boussier, not too many volumes are delivered in Belgium either. “At auctions approximately 100 tons daily are supplied, of which 30% is for export.”

Boussier mostly sells cherries at the moment, designated for the industry. “They are imported from the Czech Republic and Poland. The annual production in Belgium is decreasing; an increasing amount of cherries is lifted, chiefly resulting from the fact that the Eastern bloc countries maintain a cheaper production. We cannot match that.”
