Last season, Peruvian blueberry exports to the United States grew by 31% in volume and 53.9% of total Peruvian blueberry exports in the world went to that market. In this perspective, the analysis and statistics prepared by Eder Ríos, global business developer and international sales manager, are illustrative of the good footing on which the Peruvian blueberry industry is located.

The Eder Ríos list, made with updated official data from the official customs institution in Peru, Sunat, shows that half of the companies increased their demand and others maintained it, only a third of the importers decreased their purchases.”
