At this year’s edition, Salix Fruits focused on promoting Egyptian oranges, a product expected to see strong demand in the European market. With its extensive sourcing network, the company continues to offer high-quality fruit tailored to global market needs.

Fruit Logistica is crucial in shaping Salix Fruits' growth plans for the year ahead. “The impact of this fair on our 2025 strategy is immense” affirmed Gonzalez Pita. However, the industry faces significant challenges, including the strength of the U.S. dollar, geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, and shortages of refrigerated containers in certain regions. Salix Fruits remains committed to navigating these challenges through its global sourcing strategy, multicultural approach, and years of expertise.

Reflecting on the event, Gonzalez Pita emphasized the fair’s importance: “You have to be here, no matter the cost. It remains the number one trade fair in our business”.

With record-high satisfaction levels among exhibitors and visitors, Fruit Logistica 2025 reinforced its status as the premier global event for the fresh produce industry. Salix Fruits is poised to leverage the connections and insights gained to further strengthen its position in the market throughout the year.
