“No matter where or what you are eating, the ingredients in your meals came from somewhere. All roads lead to agriculture” while reading this phrase online, it is easy to realize that agriculture is the foundation of all other industries.
The International Trade Fair in Agriculture, Technologies, Food & Processing, “Agriculture Days” which will take place in Albania on May 19-21, in the city of Lushnjë will offer important opportunities for the businesses and professionals in agriculture, but undoubtedly, the presence and the workshop organized by Richard Arnold, an international trade expert, will be an added value to the “Agriculture Days”.
The prime objective of this workshop is to assemble like-minded professionals to trade ideas, thoughts and views related to the specific topics of the international trade of fresh fruits and vegetables. Being in the industry for 38 years, Richard Arnold has extensive experience of procurement of several product categories from origins throughout the world to include Egypt, India, Kenya, Morocco, Guatemala, Panama, Costa Rica, South Africa, Zimbabwe, China, Mexico, Spain, France, Netherlands, Poland and Italy.
Given that Mr. Arnold has a broad knowledge of all sectors within the industry to include Retail, Food Service/Catering, Food Processors and Wholesale, this workshop will also be a great way to discuss with potential agribusinesses to facilitate connection with EU Buyers in a B2B-like session. Apart from getting valuable information, by attending the workshop, professionals can build new relationships and establish connections with potential prospects. Introductions and partnerships can be opened up and ultimately it would be the desire to supply UK retailers either directly or via their category Managers.
During “The route of Albanian fruit and vegetable exports to high-value European Markets” a range of subjects will be covered by Richard Arnold. From Demand trends and Quality management & Certifications to Marketing standards, Competition and Prices.
With various case studies and valuable information, this workshop is set up in such a way that you as a business owner will benefit from this latter.

This workshop gives you as a professional or as an agribusiness the best opportunity to understand what the competition in the EU market is and how Albanian producers and exporters can compete at the EU level.
Quality management tips and how can producers be informed of the latest changes, what are the requirements for product calibration, packaging, labeling, are some of the questions that will be answered.
