Russia: record high imports of Italian grapes in 2012/13
Despite a slight decrease in Russia's total grape imports in the season 2012/13, Italy managed to export more grapes to the Russian Federation.
Italy's grape exports to Russia rose by 60% year-on-year and amounted to 16,000 tons, the highest result over the past 5 seasons.
An increase in exports enabled Italy to improve its position in Russia's grape import geography. In the season 2012/13 Italy ranked eighth, while a season before the country was the tenth largest exporter of grapes to Russia.
We would remind you that more detailed information about the Russian and Ukrainian grape market developments and outlook will be presented during the International Exhibition-Conference “Golden Bunch of Grapes – 2013”, which is to take place in Simferopol, Ukraine, August 22-24, 2013.
