Increasing production for export
Driven by global supply chains
Facilitated by trade liberalization
Important income source for some countries→ i.e. Kenya: 13% of GDP
Less than 10% of global fruit and vegetable production for export

Volume and value larger than export markets Continue to be dominated by informal chains (“wet
markets”) Sector characterized by very rapid change
→ Supermarket growth→ More sophisticated, more integrated supply chains
Changing procurement system→ Shorter supply chains→ Increasing importance of contract farming
