PPP To Promote Malaysian Fruits, Agro-Industry Products In Finland

By Sharifah Pirdaus Syed Ali KUALA LUMPUR, April 30 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Agriculture Representative Office in the Hague (PPP The Hague) in the Netherlands will hold four promotions of Malaysian fruits and agro-industry products on May 6 and 7 in Helsinki, Finland. Second Secretary of Agriculture Mohammad Wafiuddin Esa said the events will be held in collaboration with the K-citymarket chain. "The chain commands a 12 per cent market share, and last year recorded 18 million visitors at its 81 outlets with sales of EUR2.08 billion," he said in a statement to Bernama. The promotions will feature starfruit, mangosteen, mangoes, red dragon fruit, jackfruit, pineapple and papaya, as well as agro-industry products such as Agromas White Coffee, Agromas 'Seri Kaya Madu', Agromas 'Kuah Rojak Madu', Agromas 'Kuah Kacang' and Coconut Chunk. PPP's previous promotions in Malmo, Sweden on March 4-5 garnered very good response, he said, adding such promotions in Scandinavian countries had begun last year. The PPP in the Hague is the gateway to a market of 190 million people, he said. -- BERNAMA
