Fruit and Vegetable Business in Russia in 2012: will the Predictions Bear Fruit?

ITE company, organizer of World Food Moscow 2012 exhibition, and Fruit-Inform, company which provides information and analysis of CIS fruit and vegetable market, announce that the Fifth International Conference, which is called “Fruit and Vegetable Business in Russia in 2012”, will be held on September 18, 2012.

This conference has already become the traditional meeting place for professionals from different countries, who deal with fruit and vegetable growing, storage, processing and wholesale and retail trade of these products.

The fact that this conference will take place during World Food Moscow 2012, one of the largest food exhibitions in Russia and CIS, allows all participants to derive the maximum benefit from it. During the exhibition, the negotiations with suppliers and customers will be held; and during the conference, all the participants will receive the exclusive market information from the leading experts in this field; and also they will have the opportunity to meet them and discuss all the questions face to face.

This year the conference is especially relevant and important because of two major events: the expected entry of Russia into the WTO and the bankruptcy of JFC company, the largest importer of fruits and vegetables in Russia.

The consequences of Russia’s entry into the WTO may change the geography of fresh vegetables and fruits supply, while bankruptcy of JFC Group may give a unique opportunity to different market operators – both importers and supermarket chains – to increase their market share. Besides, this year the price forecast of Fruit-Inform will be of great interest, as the last year the forecast of collapse of vegetables and potatoes prices and price decrease of apples worked by 100%! Of course, other important topics of Russian fruit and vegetable industry will be covered.

To participate in the conference “Fruit and Vegetable Business in Russia in 2012” it is necessary to fill out an application.
