Exporting mandarins to Europe

Exporting mandarins to Europe requires a lot of hard work and knowledge. To help you prepare CBI provides a Market Potential study with a list of European countries that offer the most opportunities for export of mandarins and it describes the trends that offer new opportunities. The Market Entry study on this page contains information about buyer requirements and certifications, main market segments and distribution channels as well as information about the competition. 

Mandarins are well liked for their sweet and refreshing flavour, their useful size and the fact that they are easy to peel. These characteristics make mandarins a popular healthy snack, particularly during the winter months when they are in season. During the European season, competition with Spanish mandarins usually centres on price. Countries with a counter-season in the Southern Hemisphere have good opportunities in the European market, since mandarin consumption is high year-round.
