16 Jun 2010 • by Natalie Aster
Uzbekistan is one of the largest producers of Dried Fruit of unique taste and qualities. Interest for direct products manufactured without chemicals and additional processing is growing worldwide. Uzbekistan has advantages in this respect as their basic property of Fruit grown and dried in this country is their “naturalness” – the natural process of drying and no chemical treatment.

Major consumer of Dried Fruit and Nuts provided by Uzbekistan is Russia (90% of the total volume).

In 2008 Uzbekistan exported $58 mln worth volume of Dried Fruit and Nuts. As compared to 2007 export declined by 9%. The share of export on the Dried Fruit and Nuts market is notably significant. Practically all the Dried Fruit and Nuts manufactured in the country are exported.
