“This season, Argentina´s leadership in Early Blueberries was remarkable”

Our president, Carlos Stabile, shares his impressions of the present season and 2015 perspectives.

Dear Friends,

This year Argentina showed that the planning and sustained effort are the best allies to accomplish the goals you set. Thus, after severalyears of betting on varietal replacement, our country demonstrated its leadership in Early Blueberries window. Numbers speak for themselves, since between August and October more than 10,000 tons of fresh blueberries were exported to consolidate our position inearly fruit shipments.
Another important achievement was the increase in our volume over the previous year on the order of 32%, thanks to the favorable climatethat benefitted us throughout the year and the commitment of producers and exporters. Thus, exports of Argentina in 2014 completed more than 16,500 tons of blueberries to different markets.
As President of ABC, I am thoroughly satisfied with the results of this year, that will be even better in 2015. Our association, alwaysavailable for the whole Industry, will continue developing  new markets so that exceptional quality of Argentinean blueberries  is recognized worldwide.
I wish you everyone a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the coming year.

Carlos Stabile
   President
