Despite the strong global crisis fueled by the Coronavirus pandemic, there are still many opportunities for the Italian agri-food sector, especially in the US market. According to an analysis by Bper, in the coming months Italian food exports will in fact be able to enjoy the absence of additional duties, taking advantage of competing European producers and thus gaining market shares.

THE GLOBAL SCENARIO

In the first quarter of 2020, almost all major exporter countries recorded positive performances, with the exception of Great Britain (-12.5%) and France (-4%). Italy recorded one of the best growth performances (+10%), so much so that it won the bronze medal of exporting countries in value on a global scale.
