Ten years after the referendum, the United Kingdom is importing fewer Spanish agri‑food products and more goods from third countries. Rising costs, bureaucracy and the loss of competitive advantages have reshaped trade relations with one of the Spanish agri‑food sector’s key markets.
In the fresh fruit and vegetable sector, sustainability is often addressed in the final stages of the value chain, such as packaging, logistics or food waste at the point of sale. However, one of the most decisive moments takes place much earlier: at the cutting stage.
On 23 June 2016, the referendum in which voters in the United Kingdom and Gibraltar chose to leave the EU was held. Tomorrow marks ten years since that vote, a decade in which the UK market has remained the third most important destination for Spain’s fruit and vegetable export sector. However, new administrative requirements have been introduced, costs have increased, and competition from third countries has intensified.
Pest monitoring, crop efficiency, and product positioning are gaining importance in a strategic category for Spain.
Germany has become the destination that sustains Spain’s cherry export campaign, concentrating much of the growth and setting the pace of foreign shipments in recent years.
More than 850 guests attend this emotional celebration, which highlights the role of people as a fundamental pillar of the agri‑food cooperative’s success over these five decades.
