Thank you, @NabilBelm for your insight into the working conditions for berry growers in Morocco and for painting such a clear picture of the position of berry producers and the strains they are under.

🍓 🫐 It’s so great to be back in person again at the Global Berry Congress. And everyone is here! #berrycongress
This pricing pressure will doubtlessly have a knock-on effect on workers’ wages and will inevitably boost a black market where cheaper labour is available. This will affect the extent and nature of bad recruitment practices.

Jonathan Lock, from @marksandspencer:
"Labour shortages exacerbated by the increase of the price of labour and the price of retaining labour!"

@mikefruitnet opened the #BerryCongress in Rotterdam, NL, kicking off with research conducted by the Rabo Bank on the berry market.
Shrunken consumption and sales decline due to inflation, but blueberry - consumption - seems to be largely immune to the economic downturn.
We are proud to be featured on the Global Berry Congress event!
Our Founder & CEO Lea Esterhuizen will be speaking about listening, early warning and human rights due diligence in berries.
We hope to see you there!!

Two very simple yet vital conclusions from yesterday's #berrycongress…
😞 Disappointed buyers don't come right back for more
⏰ Ten weeks is a long time in #freshproduce
"Consumers are more aware," says Holmberg. "They know what they want and have a long list of demands. As a supermarket chain, that puts us in the spotlight. Our consumer research last year found that strawberry consumers who had a bad taste experience were lost for ten weeks."
"Last year, we changed all our packaging, adding the variety to all the packs," says Holmberg. "In the UK, they've had that for many years. My goal is that it will become natural for consumers to buy a particular variety of berry as they do for apples and citrus." #berrycongress
Daniel Bustamante: The political situation in Peru brings a lot of uncertainty and mixed messages and this is discouraging potential and existing investors and will slow down the growth in new plantings to a minimum. #berrycongress #GBC2021
Daniel Bustamante: Peru is trialling many new varieties very aggressively so that we can supply our different markets with exactly the right fruit for them. Right now there are around 50 blueberry varieties – some of which look very good. #berrycongress #GBC2021
Matsumoto (left) tells Masaru Yamada: "We are focusing on seed strawberries because we believe these varieties have so many opportunities in the future. They have many advantages, such as less risk when it comes to pests and diseases." #berrycongress #GBC2021
Our final Launchpad session looks at Japanese seed developer Miyoshi Group, which is preparing to become the first company to deliver sweet and tasty Japanese strawberries in the form of private F1 seeds. We speak with Yo Matsumoto of Miyoshi & Co #berrycongress #GBC2021
Pascal Boutin: Our vision is clear. Every year consumer expectations are rising and clearly, supermarkets will have to offer different kinds of quality and tasting experience. Consumers want to have the same eating experience right through the year. #berrycongress #GBC2021
Pascal Boutin: We have four blueberry varieties with a very similar tasting profile which makes it easy for retailers to offer consumers the same type of product throughout an 8-month window and we’re working very hard to extend this window of production. #berrycongress #GBC2021
Peter L-L: We’ve done consumer research in six countries which shows that they value taste, texture, size, keeping quality and a consistent eating experience. They’re also looking for novel flavours and colours. Those are the attributes we’re breeding for. #berrycongress #GBC2021
Next up, Peter Landon-Lane of VentureFruit, the new global genetics and varietal management business launched in August by T&G Global. Offer end-to-end varietal management. #berrycongress #GBC2021
