Turkey exports cherries to China for first time

Turkey has exported cherries to China for the first time, said İhsan Beşer, chairman of Anadolu Kiraz. The exports were made under the 2013 Food Security Agreement and the 2015 Plant Health Protocol signed by Turkey and China.

In China's crowded cities, such as Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing, people consume a large quantity of cherries, Beşer said.

Turkey recently received a permit to export cherries to China after almost eight years of technical and diplomatic work, as well as negotiations between Turkish exporters and Chinese authorities.

As part of the first cherry exports, the company sent 4 tons of cherries to four customers in China, according to the Anadolu Kiraz chairman. "They will be sold in big markets and online stores. We expect more orders next year," he said.

Turkey ranks first in cherry production and third in exports globally.
