Fresh Produce – Supply Chain & Logistics

However, the resumption of flights does not resolve all challenges facing exporters.

South Korea is a significant importer of fresh produce, including citrus, grapes, and processed fruit products.

The port is upgrading infrastructure to support refrigerated cargo through a US$250 million program.

The facility features cold storage, dry warehousing, and repackaging centres to standardize agricultural packaging and reduce post-harvest losses.

These increases in transport costs make moving vegetables from farms to markets more expensive, with the costs passed directly to consumers.
