Vegetable exports jump 20% on strong demand, lower air freight and goodwill

Export of vegetables has risen to about 20% more than the pre-COVID levels, helped by demand from West Asia and Europe, and lower air freight.
Indian exporters also earned goodwill as they had ensured steady supply even when freight rates were high unlike countries like Egypt, China, Kenya, and the Dominican Republic, said Sunil Awari, GM at Bengaluru-based Namdhari Farm Fresh.
