    NEW AFRICA BUSINESS NEWS (NABN) Freetown, Sierra Leone- KNNCI Trade, Policy and Advocacy Officer Fredrick Mukilya hinted the increase in demand to the quality of local avocados as well as the country’s proficiency to fulfill customers’ proposals. In this regard, they are obliged to provide phytosanitary and health certificates amidst others to ensure their products are free from pests and diseases.

    “We are looking for Kenyan companies especially those who are exporting Fuerte avocado. We have communicated the same to our members,” Mukilya notified the Business Daily.

    Many of the avocados whose ultimata are high encompass Fuerte, and Hass, which are known for their richer tastes and nutritional values. Therefore, about fourteen growers have conceded to the invitation with the deadline being May 11th, 2021.

    Besides from Egypt, desire for avocado is also impressive in Russia, and the Middle East. Data from the Horticulture Directorate indicates that, the significance of Kenya’s avocado exports lunged 93% to Sh4.26 billion between January and March approximated a parallel period in 2020.

    Kenya, which is indexed eighth globally in avocado production, exported 26,481 tonnes of the fruit during the period correlated to 15,101 tones in the first three months of 2020. This ensued the lifting of a ban on avocado shipments, which the regulator had said was essential to prevent pre-mature harvests by cartels keen on profiteering from
    global demand.

    The Directorate of Horticulture allowed the resumption of export of the popular Fuerte variety on February 15 followed by Hass on March 8 after close to a four-month ban.

    The avocado season for these major variations generally reaches to an end at that time occurring in a scarcity of the fruit in the country, pushing up the expense of the product.
