Context
Fruit and vegetable sectors are characterised by a variety of issues, linked to the large number of actors involved in the sector, the diversity of fruit and vegetable species, the various production methods for the fresh market and for processing, the diversity of marketing methods and the different levels of professional and inter-professional organisation.
The SIAFIL-EXPORT forum focuses on bringing together the different actors in the fruit and vegetable sector to identify the constraints faced in the sector, to develop a common strategy and to agree on a platform for interventions.
For this edition, the SIAFIL-EXPORT forum will focus on the challenge of exporting Algerian fruit and vegetables: the objective being to draw up a report on the issue of Algerian exports in the fruit and vegetable sector. We aim to trace the strengths and weaknesses of our companies in this field, as well as to trace certain initiatives on the part of innovative companies.
