Moldova doubles apple export to Russia over 5 seasons

According to Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation, Russia doubled imports of Moldovan apples over the past 5 seasons. In the first 11 months of the season 2012/13, Moldova exported 166,000 tonnes of apples to Russia, while in the same period of the season 2008/09 Moldovan exports had amounted just to 82,000 tonnes.

Five seasons ago, Moldova was just fifth largest exporter of apples to the Russian Federation. Currently, this country ranks second and is behind only China.

In the current season Moldova accounted for the share of 13% in Russia's total apple imports despite a decrease of 11% in exports in the first 11 months of the season.

We would remind you that more detailed information about the Russian and Ukrainian apple market developments will be presented at the 3rd International Conference “Apple Business of Ukraine & Russia – 2013”, which is to take place on August 15-16, 2013, Donetsk, Ukraine.
