Russia: record low imports of Chinese juices

Russia's imports of Chinese fruit and vegetable juices were record low in the first 5 months of the current season.

In July-November 2013, Russian importers purchased 19,000 tons of juices from China. The import volumes in the same period of the previous season were 1.6 times of the current levels. In such a way, China was the second largest exporter of juices to the Russian Federation. The Netherlands were the leader thanks to an increase of 29% in exports.

We would remind you that China led in exports of fruit and vegetable juices to Russia in the previous season with the share of 24% in Russia's total imports.
