Pakistan has commenced kinnow export this year with the first consignment of 390 tonnes shipped to Sri Lanka and Dubai. The whole country started on the same day - December 1st, as the Ministry of Commerce prohibited earlier export.
According to Waheed Ahmed, Chairman, All Pakistan Fruit and Vegetable Exporters Importers and Merchant Association (PFVA) at least 15 containers each have been sent to Dubai and Sri Lanka.
This year's production is expected to reach 1.8 million tonnes, a reduction of 20%. if Pakistan reaches its export target this year (0.2 million tonnes), international sales should generate in the region of $110 million.
Pakistan has lost an important market as US sanctions have made it difficult to export to Iran. There are hopes that increased trade with Indonesia will offset the loss of Iran.
