Australian growers capitalize on Chinese demand for blueberries
ABGA president, Greg McCulloch, said Australian blueberry growers already know they have a superior product compared to those countries that currently have market access to China.
“This research conducted by Shanghai-based Knudsen & Co confirms that there is an existing and growing Chinese demand for Australian blueberries that recognises the superior taste, size, food safety and nutritional value of Australian grown blueberries,” Mr McCulloch said.
The report said that projected Chinese demand for blueberries was 20 per cent per annum, making it the fastest growing fruit category in China.
