Exciting new speaker additions have been confirmed for Fresh Produce India this week. Once again Fresh Produce India promises to be an unmissable event in one of the world’s most exciting emerging markets for fresh fruit and vegetables.
Meeting at the Shangri-La Hotel in New Delhi on 2-4 March 2011, India’s only international conference for the fresh produce industry will bring together the most influential figures from India’s major fresh produce companies with leading international players.
Sanjay Dave, director of Indian export development agency APEDA, will lend his expertise to a session looking at the future for Indian grape exports to the EU in the wake of last year’s Chlormequat residue issue. Mr Dave will outline APEDA’s response to the episode and discuss the industry’s efforts to rebuild the confidence of EU regulatory authorities, retailers and importers.
Meanwhile, Björn Witte, CEO of Desai Fruits and Vegetables (India), will share first-hand knowledge of India's farm sourcing challenge in a session looking at how local and foreign entities can procure fresh produce in the vast subcontinent. Mr Witte will discuss the company’s work in the banana sector, where it has become India’s leading grower and exporter.
Along with first-rate insights and analysis from expert speakers, Fresh Produce India offers delegates abundant networking opportunities to further grow their business.
