Singapore Fruit & Vegetable Market facts:
Singapore imported an estimated value of S$1 .9 billion worth of food per year. Fruits and vegetables imported are respectively 370,000 tons and 410,000 tons with an estimated market value of S$302 million and S$415 million in 2001. In 2008, our per capita consumption for fruit is 70.0kg, and for vegetable is 82.6kg.
In Singapore, a government campaign to encourage people to eat more healthy food has helped to create a positive effect on the fruit and vegetables market.
This is positively a gigantic market and Singapore International Fruit & Vegetable Show 2010 aims to be the fresh produce hub of Asia, for buyers and suppliers alike.

As this is a “trade only” exhibition for both individual exhibitors, and pavilions representing a country or region, the event will be opened to the trade for the first two days, and to the public on the final day of the fair.

Attracting exhibiting companies from around the world, interested in selling in the Asian market, the variety of products on display, will be of great interest to all trade buyers from within the fresh produce market and within the flower sector, which is also a part of the fair.
