GROENTEN EN FRUIT IN QUEBEC EN DE MARITIEME PROVINCIES

FIT Montreal 31 augustus 2014

Canada importeert traditioneel veel verse voeding, voornamelijk groenten en fruit. De belangrijkste

reden hiervoor is het klimaat, met name de lange winters met veel sneeuw.

In deze paper vindt u de invoerstatistieken voor een aantal groenten en fruit in Oost-Canada en meer

bepaald de provincies Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island en Labrador-

Newfoundland. Daarnaast lijsten wij ook importeurs/distributeurs op en verwijzen we naar de

reglementering.

Voor verdere vragen over de toegang tot de Oost-Canadese markt, kan u altijd terecht bij FIT Montreal.

1. Invoerstatistieken groenten en fruit (2009-2013)

Totale invoer groenten en fruit uit de EU naar Quebec (douanecodes 0701 tot 0709 en 0801 tot 0810)

Uniteit: Canadese dollar1

We merken op dat Belgie op een prominente 4e plaats staat, boven Nederland. Tijdens het topjaar

2011 importeerde Quebec uit België ter waarde van 7,5 miljoen C$ groenten en fruit, in 2012 zakte dat

naar 4 miljoen C$ en vorig jaar zelfs tot onder de 3 miljoen C$.

1 Nota: De gemiddelde wisselkoers C$/Eur van 01/11/2012 tot 01/11/2013 bedroeg: 0,7749

Statistieken kunnen gratis geconsulteerd worden op deze link.

4

Totale invoer groenten en fruit uit de EU naar Nova Scotia (douanecodes 0701 tot 0709 en 0801 tot 0810)

De 4 maritieme provincies tellen samen een bevolking van 2,5 miljoen inwoners (in vergelijking met

Quebec dat er 8 miljoen telt). De meeste distributeurs bevoorraden zich bij importeurs uit Quebec of

Ontario, dit is ook te zien uit onderstaande statistieken.
