This event “means a great opportunity to display our produce and expand internationally. The aim is to meet up with our current clients to analyse and programme the campaign, and to try to win over new clients and markets,” the Sales Manager, José Ángel Delgado, advances.
As new developments, they will present new green asparagus formats that may be seen on their stand (9C17). Additionally, they will carry out a show cooking event with professional chefs to assure that visitors will be able to experience the flavour and quality of their green asparagus.
While they are working on their presence at the trade fair, they are also taking stock of the last campaign, “positive in production, in spite of the problems we continue to suffer from, due to the scarcity of water, but not as positive regarding prices,” and they are getting ready for the next year, for which they will have 5% more surface area. “It is slightly complicated predicting what the season is going to be like. This produce depends on the weather conditions, but, as always, we will look towards it with a good attitude.”
Without any doubt, the drought will be one of the most important variables. “It is a serious problem, and it affects us directly. We have 50% of our plantations on dry land, with only rainwater irrigation. We hope it will rain in the autumn in order for us to have a good campaign.”
Following the building of their new warehouse, now up and running 100%, they are looking towards a new renewable energy project. “The aim is to produce 80% or more of our electricity consumption using solar panels.”
