Citrus and Table Grape Exports to Asia: An Industry Competitor Analysis

Spider_chart

This report is the concluding volume in a series of reports that the MAC team have published over the last 3 years looking at the competitiveness of Australian table grapes and citrus in Asia with a specific comparison to our two largest competitors Chile and South Africa.  The summary of this assessment can be found in the diagram here and on page 23 of the report which can be found at: http://hin.com.au/Resources/Citrus-and-Table-Grape-Exports-to-Asia.aspx

This most recent report extends this competitive assessment to identify the key limitations and opportunities for improvement for both industries (summary table on page 6).
I hope you find this report of interest and use and would welcome any feedback.
