«Chasing exports to major new markets»
Speaking to «X», Mr. Papadopoulos said that the purpose of producers and traders of Nestos area and the Region of E.M.-TH. is to search all of those partnerships that will deliver the most in terms of exports and income growth.

At the weekend 7 to September 9, there were the presence of the largest fruit exposure and Asian vegetables, held in Hong — Kong with reaping equally significant results from contacts made and series.This was another important mission in the heart of the developments and, in particular, of high fruit and food exposure which is held from 27 to 30 this month in Dubai.
It is noteworthy that the four enterprises from Kavala represent 12-13% of the domestic production of kiwi, while the three-year program has a budget of 3 million Euro.
The Canadian market has already called for sending 50 containers (ie 1,000 tonnes) in the first phase, while the four cooperatives, participate in the operation by producing about 20,000 tonnes of kiwi in the Nestos region.
Expectations of Kavala businesses are to switch their production to new markets, covering the ground lost to the embargo imposed in Russia, the market of which was fed with about 20 tons of mainly Greek (Kavala) kiwi.
