Origine Group ships the last containers of Italian kiwi to the overseas market
By March the last containers of Italian kiwis will have been shipped by Origine Group to overseas markets. This season was definitely challenging due to the reduction in volume and sizes of the Italian green kiwi, and to the very strong turbulence on the logistics front, but which has nevertheless seen a further development of the sales of the Italo-Chilean Consortium. The decrease in volume of the Italian green kiwi harvested in 2020, together with a growing global demand and a strong dollar, has led to a complex situation - says the Managing Director of Origine Group, Alessandro Zampagna . On the one hand we gave priority to established business partners leaving out non-strategic sales, on the other hand prices went up but competition with the Greek product was particularly difficult, especially in the first part of the season.
