Belgium - Conference pear price breaks record
The prices for Conference pears have broken a record. At the Belgian fruit auction BFV, pears have been sold for € 1,00 per kg for the first time. "We have sold 30% more pears and the prices remain high. Because of the shortage on the market we export to almost all European markets," CEO Filip Lowette of the Belgian fruit auction BFV said. Veiling Haspengouw normally sells more apples than pears, but now it is the other way around for the second time in the company's history. The Belgian auctions have less pears in stock, but they still traders not to stop supplying their customers. "We have to keep supplying the markets we have conquered," CEO Renaat Kuiper of Veiling Haspengouw said.
