The quick adoption of the latest harvesting and post harvest techniques, rapid implementation of GlobalGAP, ISO and Organic certification and the introduction of new varieties suitable for the fresh market has ensured that Serbia establishes itself as one of the most trusted exporters in South Eastern Europe.

Presentation of Serbian producers at Fruit Logistica was organized by the “Fruits of Serbia” Association and made possible by USAID Agribusiness Project in coordination with The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management of the Republic of Serbia and SIEPA (Serbia Investment & Export Promotion Agency)

Get connected with Serbian producers and check the exquisite array of Serbia's delicacies at Fruit Logistica, from Feb 3 – 5, every day from 09:00 to 18:00, in Hall 23 stand D-07.
