"Dried, unsulphured apricots increasingly in demand"
This week, the Dutch company Tovano received the new crop of dried apricots from Turkey. "They're of excellent quality, but available volumes are limited," says Richard Strijbis. That decreased volume is partly due to the earthquake. "The growing area is right alongside that area, so the infrastructure has been affected, and suppliers lack staff. That makes for a difficult start."
