Chilean cherry production will double in the new season
Chilean cherry production will double in the new season According to the Chilean website "Mundomaritimo", according to Seidwitz, there are many cherries produced in the world, such as the United States, Turkey, and even China
.
However, Chilean cherries are unique in that they are produced in the winter
of the Northern Hemisphere.
At this time, the demand for cherries in the Chinese market is very large, because this fruit is regarded as a Gift for the Chinese New Year

Chilean producers have also been working hard to improve the quality
of cherries.

”
He also predicted that Chilean cherries will produce twice as much
in the 2022/23 season as in the 2021/22 season.
"In the 2021/22 season, Chilean cherries have already increased by 20%
compared to the 2020/21 season.
It is worth noting that 70% of the cherries will be shipped out within 3 weeks between November and
December.
Of course, there is another peak period for exports, which is before the Chinese New Year, that is, between
the end of January and the end of February.
However, in order to achieve greater success in the Chilean market, we will start shipping
in the first six weeks of the peak export period of Cherries in November.

China's market share ranked first, and the European and American markets grew steadily Chilean cherries are mainly exported to the Chinese market, but the demand for the United States and Europe has also grown
steadily in recent years.
steadily in recent years.
In the 2020/21 season, 98% of Chile's exports of cherries went to the Chinese market, while only 2% went to Europe and the United States, but this proportion increased to about 9% in the 2021/22 season and is expected to increase to 15%
in the 2022/23 season.
In other words, 19,000 40-foot standard container (FEU) cherries will be shipped to China and 3,500 FEU cherries will be shipped to Europe and the United States
in the new season.

"During the high season for Cherries exports, we speed up the 'Cherry Express' service
," Seidwitz said.
This saves us 5 to 6 days of shipping time, and it only takes 22 to 23 days
to export cherries from Valparaíso in Chile to Hong Kong and other ports in the mainland.

Actively cooperate with all parties to ensure the quality of logistics services
Actively cooperate with all parties to ensure the quality of logistics services As for the impact of port congestion and COVID-19 on the quality of Hapag-Lloyd's services, Sedwitz responded: "In the 2021/22 production season, chilean cherries are facing many challenges
.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the workers' strike, we are experiencing a shortage of labor at the docks
.
To do this, we had to transport the cherries to the ports
of Peru first.
In addition, the insufficient number of available containers and the congestion of the port of Hong Kong, China, are other challenges
we face.
Now, in order to ensure smoother transportation of cherries in the new production season, we have been working
with logistics company stakeholders.

Regarding the main challenges to coordination and cooperation between cherries sellers and logistics operators, he noted that airlines should coordinate not only with local Chilean sellers of cherries, but also with stakeholders in export destinations
.
.
Seidwitz explains: "When our ships arrived at port, they were loaded with thousands of containers of cherries
.
To coordinate the cargo, we have weekly conference calls where we coordinate and collaborate with logistics teams everywhere, with the participation of
fleet managers and crew.
Of course, we also guarantee the power supply
of refrigerated containers.

Develop seawater desalination technology to ensure water for the cultivation of cherries
Develop seawater desalination technology to ensure water for the cultivation of cherries Speaking about the impact of climate change on cherries, Seidwitz noted: "This year the temperature has been particularly high, which is probably the driest period
in 10 years in Chile.
This is quite a challenge for fruit growers
.
Fortunately, we have a workable solution
.
In Chile, we can find alternatives to rainwater because we are on the west coast
of South America.

”
Seidwitz further explains: "We can follow Israel's example and desalinate the seawater
.
Desalination requires a lot of energy, but in northern Chile we can collect a lot of solar energy
.
That is, we have enough conditions to achieve desalination
