The Euro-Mediterranean fresh fruit and vegetable fair MEDFEL which took place this week in Perpignan, France, was the place to be this week as supermarket buyers from as far as Saudi Arabia came to visit the show looking for new suppliers. 

Saudi Arabia's Al Tamimi supermarkets were represented by Mr. Mohammed Salah who wandered around the stands listening and taking notes on the different fruit and vegetgable exporters who were exhibiting the products, and decided that the best way to get to know more about the European as well as global fruit and vegetable market was to purchase the latest copy of the FRUCTIDOR INTERNATIONAL guide.
