Peru will be the Partner Country of
Macfrut 2016. The show, an international
trade fair for the fruit and vegetable sector
organized by Cesena Fiera,
will be held from Septem-
ber 14 to 16 in the pavil-
ions of Rimini Fiera. The
show will feature cooking
demonstrations and events
organized in collaboration
with Promperu to promote
fruit and vegetable produce
from Peru and its major
fruit and vegetable produc-
ers.
With a 6.1 percent gross
domestic product growth
rate in the last decade and
a 5.5 percent growth rate forecast for 2016-
2017, Peru is one of the most dynamic
countries in South America.
The fruit and vegetable sector plays a key
role in this development. In fact, in 2015,
Peru's fruit and vegetable production ex-
ceeded 8 million tons. Peru is a world-lead-
ing producer and exporter of artichokes
and asparagus. Moreover, it is one of the
world's leading exporters of table grapes,
organic bananas, avocados, small fruits, cit-
rus fruits and mango.
Peru exports mainly to the USA, Asia and
Europe, especially the Netherlands, the UK
and Spain. There is also a growing interest
in the Italian market. Over the last five
years the country has seen a 15 percent per
year increase in trade.
"Peru is one of the most interesting
countries in the international fruit and veg-
etable industry," says Renzo Piraccini, Pres-
ident of Macfrut. "In the last few years,
thanks to extremely favourable pedocli-
matic conditions and substantial foreign in-
vestments, its production has grown
considerably. We are therefore honored that
Peru, which last year was able to experi-
ence the relaunch of Macfrut, has accepted,
this year, our invitation to be the trade fair's
partner country. Leading associations and
major fruit and vegetable producers from
Peru will be attending the event. This
proves that there is a growing interest in
the exhibition and Italy as a target market
for Peru's produce but also in importing
packaging and innovative technologies, a
field in which we are world leaders."
