Piotr Janota, President of the Fruit Union Association said that when Polish apples were introduced for the first time in the Malaysian market, Poland exported around 200 tons of apples. Now, Janota claims the export of Polish apples to Malaysia is set to increase this year.
He explained that since Polish apples were introduced to the Malaysian market, the response has generally been very good. This year, many enquiries from fresh fruit importers have been received for the next harvesting season, which is in September/ October.
Malaysian consumers have already had the opportunity to buy Polish apples, but only in a limited variety and at a few selected supermarkets. “This year, we believe there will be an increase... possibly much larger. Our optimism is based on the encouraging enquiries we received from importers here.”
