About the Australian Avocados Southeast Asia Workshops

Three special Australian Avocados’ Southeast Asia Workshops will be rolled out in early March that aim to deepen overseas’ importers and retailers understanding of Australian avocados. They will be able to directly connect with Australian growers and exporters as well as industry experts.

The workshops will provide importers and retailers with valuable insights into Australian avocado quality, seasonality, supply, and insights into possible market opportunities. Importantly, these events will help to build connections that support future trade partnerships.

The first workshop will be held in Kuala Lumpur (Monday 3 March), then Singapore (Wednesday 5 March) followed by Hong Kong (Friday 7 March).

Avocados Australia’s Avocado Trade Development and Market Access Project team will be at these events leveraging the opportunities to develop the industry’s relationships with its overseas trade partners. This project aims to address any critical challenges and identify new opportunities to position Australian avocados as a leading global brand while fostering a sustainable export culture. It carefully aligns with the Avocado Strategic Investment Plan 2022–2026.

For more information contact Flora Zhang, AAL’s General Manager – Export: export@avocado.org.au or 0499 600 613.

You will see the full coverage of these events in a future issue of Guacamole and our magazine, Talking Avocados!
