Sweet citrus fruits, such as oranges, mandarins, and lemons, are not only delicious and nutritious but also play a fundamental role in Peru’s economy and international trade.

The export of sweet citrus is a key activity within Peru’s agricultural sector. Thanks to its favorable climate and fertile soils, the country has positioned itself as one of the leading citrus producers and exporters in Latin America. The growing global demand for fresh fruit has made Peru a reliable supplier for markets such as the United States, Europe, and Asia.

Economic Impact and Job Creation

The sweet citrus sector generates thousands of direct and indirect jobs in rural areas, from production and harvesting to logistics and export. This industry benefits not only farmers and field workers but also strengthens the transportation, storage, and marketing industries.

Additionally, citrus exports represent a key source of foreign revenue for the country. By selling products in international markets, Peru’s trade balance is strengthened, promoting sustainable economic growth.

Nutritional Benefits and Global Demand

Sweet citrus fruits are globally recognized for their high levels of vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, making them an essential part of a healthy diet. The increasing trend toward consuming natural and fresh foods has boosted global demand for citrus fruits, enhancing their commercialization abroad.

Strengthening International Trade Relations

The export of sweet citrus not only drives the economy but also strengthens Peru’s trade relations with other countries. Through free trade agreements and bilateral accords, new opportunities arise to expand the presence of Peruvian citrus in strategic markets.
