Dear reader and catalogue user,
This publication brings you the information about the fruit and vegetable sector and export oriented companies from Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). It is to be used as a starting point for potential distributors and buyers to learn more about the main types of fruit and vegetables in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the leading producers and processors.
The BiH Foreign Trade Chamber is the association of entrepreneurs throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina. One of its activities is to represent its members to potential partners abroad, as well as to provide services of strategic promotion in the foreign markets, which is being done with this catalogue.
Sincerely,

Production growth to satisfy your orders. Production of fruits and vegetables is one of the most
important sectors in agriculture in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the last couple of years, this sector
has recorded a large increase in production, especially in the subsector of berry fruits. The increase
in production of fruits and vegetables during the last couple of years is a direct result of significant
investments across the entire Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Competitive prices for competitive products. Total production of fruits and vegetables in 2012
amounted to 150 million KM, out of which 40% was placed in the international markets. From premium
quality fruits (plums, apples, pears, grapes, raspberries, strawberries, cherries and forest fruits) and
vegetables (potatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers), the TOP INTERNATIONAL
PICKS are fresh plums, frozen and fresh raspberries, forest fruits, cherries, gherkins, tomatoes and
potatoes!
Standardized quality to satisfy your buyers. Most of the producers follow the latest trends, as
well as technologies used today in this type of production and obtained standards which are required
from the EU member states consumers, such as GlobalGAP. Furthermore, this sector can boast of
the use of highly sophisticated equipment, especially in the processing of fruits, where individual
companies have the most advanced equipment available today.
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES SECTOR IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA Moving forward in line with the new
trends. What is very positive and encouraging
is that during the last 3 years there has been
an introduction of new cultivars and varieties
in primary production across the whole Bosnia
and Herzegovina, such as the primocane
raspberry, chokeberry, American high-bush
blueberry, new strawberry varieties, Kamchatka
berries, cherries, etc. The advantage of new
varieties and fruit species is reflected in the
extension of the season in which the fresh
fruits and vegetables are available, and in
the fact that with the quality storages most
products are available all year around. Bosnia
and Herzegovina can also boast about the
developed production of fruit planting materials,
as well as the vegetable seedlings and
largely meets its own needs for expansion of
production. The sub sector of berry fruits and
tree fruits really stands out here. Some of the
local entities are exporting planting materials to
the regional countries for the first time, which
has not been the case thus far.
