Exporting cloves to Europe

The growing popularity of foreign cuisines and convenience has led to a growing range of spice mixes, sauces and condiments being used in the food industry and sold in supermarkets. These trends are important drivers for the clove market. Large importing and consumption countries like the United Kingdom and the Netherlands provide new opportunities. Offering low-pesticide and sustainable products can provide a competitive advantage. New suppliers must be able to compete with established suppliers from Madagascar and Indonesia.
