Twenty-five years of hard work by the Sri Lanka Fruit and Vegetable Producers, Processors and Exporters Association (FVPPEA) has enabled it to establish a name for Sri Lanka in the world as a resource for quality vegetable and fruits.
Annual turnover of vegetable and fruit exports stands at Rs 300 million. The association wants its members to double exports by requesting its membership to spread out to the vegetable and fruit growing areas in the provinces, instead of only working in the metropolis.
