Tridge summary

In December 2022, Moldova exported approximately 8,000 tons of apples, slightly surpassing November's figures but falling short of the expected 10-12,000 tons. The export volume was influenced by the weather conditions of previous years. Nearly two-thirds of the exports were sent to CIS markets. Notably, apple exports by sea in containers reached approximately 1,000 tons, marking a significant increase from the previous year and potentially setting a record for seaborne apple exports.
