Blueberries are a typical retail product that require scale and professional cultivation. As a supplier, it is important to operate in close coordination with producers and establish international partnerships to reach major retailers. Over the years it has become a difficult market to enter. Good quality blueberries can still be a very profitable crop, but it takes large investments in cultivation, varieties and packing to deal with the fierce competition from Peru, Spain and Morocco.
Conducting detailed market research and understanding global supply are crucial first steps when wanting to enter the European market, especially with a new country of origin. Innovation in seed varieties is increasingly important, just like the associated harvest windows. For instance, going head-to-head with Peru might be challenging if you want to perform well on price. Not to mention the quality and social certifications which are the basis for supplying key importers and retail chains.
