The Portuguese like their fresh fruits and vegetables! Portugal produces many fruits, including exotics such as pineapples and small amounts of bananas. However, imports are necessary to meet the demand for exotics and off-season products. Portugal is interesting for exporters of exotics such as bananas, pineapples and mangoes.
