With a rich production in Namibia, Capespan will increase its exports in Europe.
Table grape crop is rich and slightly ahead in Namibia.
Favourable weather conditions have allowed an early harvest. The early harvest has begun with a week in advance for the variety Flame. Red Globe variety should also be harvested with 1 or 2 weeks in advance.
Capespan should be able to export 170,000 boxes of 4.5 kg, mainly in Europe where the demand for red seedless grapes grew.
