AECOC to pay tribute to sector’s key role

The entire value chain of the sector demonstrated, even in the toughest moments of the crisis, its efficiency and professionalism, guaranteeing at all times the supply of fruit and vegetables to the whole of Spanish society and even to other countries, given its important exporting character. For this reason, the annual Congress of Fruits and Vegetables is transformed this year into an act of recognition to the value chain of the sector.

AECOC will bring together the main managers of the sector in a face-to-face event that, upon personal invitation, will be held with strict control measures for perfect compliance with the safety protocols set by the health authorities.
