With its more than 600 members and over a billion dollars annual exports all over the world, the Aegean Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Exporters' Association offers a sustainable partnership for Aegean tastes.

Advantages of the Mediterranean climate, fertile and irrigable lands, and prolonged sun exposure make it possible to produce a wide range of agricultural products. This atmosphere also paves the ground for the development of the processing industry of almost all kinds of fruits and vegetables. The primary factors regarding such development are the climate, specifications of the land, the proximity of products, and the ease of transport. As a cluster consisting of farmers, suppliers, distributors, the Aegean Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Exporters' Association is willing to be your long-term partner of Aegean tastes.

OUR LAND OF BIRTH, ANCIENT ANATOLIA…
These lands are worth everything. It is worth the air of this beautiful country, its snow, rain, sea, mountains, vast plains and plateaus, and its sun warming hearts, just as its people... It is worth its icy waterfall waters... It is worth the elbow grease you drop on each and every centimeter... It is the fertile and healthy crops that make us grow. It is today's technology and the value of traditional production that makes us unique. Our crops vary like a rainbow extending from the sea to the mountains. They all are delicious tastes in the mouth and peace of mind... This is why everything that grows in these lands with love and passion goes to the hundreds of countries in the world. The power of the seed falling into the ground is worth everything. Because Anatolia is the future, it is where history is written and lived. The richness of its vast culture is the heritage... It is a taste from the land that reached our table; it is a smile. And that very smile is worth everything. It is the soil-smelling, skillful hands of our farmers that we proudly shake. That is why it is worth their labor, heart, and elbow. What grows in this land brings taste to the world cuisines. And it only takes a day at most for them to be there as fresh as they are. Its cherries, nuts, dried grapes, apricots, figs, thyme, bay leaves, olives add taste to the tables of every home all around the world. It is our job to produce, add value, and make people happy.
