The Aegean Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Exporters Association, comprising 41 companies in Turkey's fresh fruit and vegetable sector, is working to increase its competence and exports. The sector, which currently generates $6.1 billion annually, aims to reach an export target of $10 billion. The association, responsible for 22.5% of Turkey's fresh fruit and vegetable exports, has seen a significant increase in its exports to India, growing 3.5 times in three years to over $100 million. The association plans to strengthen its position in the Far East markets through various projects and trade delegations to achieve its export target.
