Peru is expanding its agricultural export sector through the promotion of diverse fruit varieties. In the camu camu market, the country is focusing on value-added, processed products like powders and flours to meet premium demands in the United States and Japan. Most shipments are certified organic, with dehydrated formats making up the majority of export value.

Simultaneously, cherimoya exports have experienced significant growth, rising from over US$400,000 to more than US$2.8 million. While production is concentrated in regions like Lima, the industry is targeting markets in Chile, the United States, and Europe. Challenges remain regarding the maintenance of the cold chain for these perishable goods.
