Increase in exports, particularly to Poland, where demand has risen sharply.
In a few months, Ukraine has managed to increase the volume of its exports of frozen raspberries to the EU by three.
Ukraine, from June 2016 to the end of February 2017, exported a total of 7 200 tonnes of frozen raspberries, 95% of which were destined for European markets. This exported volume was 3 times larger than the volume exported 1 year earlier.
During this period of 9 months (June-February), the raspberries shipped first to Poland, which received 3,400 tonnes (+ 330% compared to the previous period), followed by Germany and then Czech Republic.
