Australia is looking forward to delivering more high-quality grapes to the Philippines and introducing more varieties of the fruit in the coming years. Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) senior trade and investment commissioner Christopher Lim commented. “We think that the market will actually grow. We’re not only trying to grow the quantity but also the variety of grapes into the Philippine market.”
Although no specific projections were provided, he expressed confidence about expanding their footprint in the archipelago. He said Philippine Airlines’ unveiling of thrice-weekly direct flights to Perth, the capital of Western Australia, “will give tremendous opportunities for increased trade and investment.”
