A large amount of tomatoes and grapes are processed into puree and wine. Consumption of all varieties of fruits and vegetables are growing except for melons and watermelons. Following table shows total consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables in Spain in Table I Consumption of Fruits and Vegetables in Spain in 2006 Total Consumption Value Euro Million Volume Million Tonne Per Capita in Kg Share in Total Food Consumption % of Value Consumption Growth Rates % of% in% in Volume Volume Value Fruits Vegetables In Spain consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables is expected to grow more in terms of value than in term of volume. According to the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA 2007) the main fruits consumed are citrus fruits (17% of total fruit consumption), apple and pears (9%), bananas (8%), melons (5%), and stone fruits (3.7%). The main vegetables consumed are lettuce and chicory (30%), onion and peppers (21%), and tomatoes (19%). Bananas: Bananas accounted for 11 per cent of value and 9 per cent of volume of total fruit sales in Spain.

In Appendix B Tables of data are presented in detail. These analysis and tables are based on trade-maps of the International Trade. 3. Trade and Consumer s Preference 3.1 Consumption Pattern: Spanish prefer domestically produced traditional fruits and vegetables. However, changing lifestyle with an ageing population and decreasing household size has impact on consumption. Apart from this trend of health, convenience, pleasure, food-safety are all influencing the consumption pattern. 3.2 Health Concern and pattern: Consumers in general are demanding fruits and vegetables having positive health affects. They are more eager to gain knowledge on quality, safety and important properties of produce. Households with small families are focusing on high quality health and convenience foods with added value and delicacies. Families with more children prefer inexpensive basic fruits and vegetables. 3.3 Consumers are spending less time on grocery shopping: Supermarkets are gaining popularity and strong position as valued by consumers on shopping close to home, availability of varieties and quality products. 4. Legislative Requirements Requirements are defined through legislation and through labels, codes and management systems. These are based on environmental, consumer health and safety and social concerns. 129

5 4.1 Tariffs : Refer and For fresh fruits and vegetables, the reduced VAT rate of 4 per cent is applicable. 4.2 Non-tariffs: Refer Report on FFV in the EU Markets 5. Non-legislative Requirements 5.1 Grading, Packaging, Marking and Labelling Requirements relating to packaging, marking and labeling are subject to the EU marketing standards of fresh fruits and vegetables. Standards are applicable only for selected fruits and vegetables refer Additional information on packaging are found at ITC webpage Trading Practices 5.3 Trade Structure and Channels Concentration and specialization is resulting in fewer companies with large market share in fresh fruits and vegetables in Spain. It is a heterogeneous market having several regional and local market structures. Majority of importers, agents, and distributors are located in Madrid and Barcelona. An exporter from a developing country can enter into Spanish market through an agent or importer or directly contact with wholesaler. There are 22 large wholesalers. Supermarkets and hypermarkets procure their requirements from wholesalers or maintain their own purchasing department. Retailing is dominated by traditional outlets (40 to 45%), followed by supermarkets (30%), hypermarket (10%), and street markets (6%). Some of the large importers and traders are: Carrefour Mercadona Grupo Eroski El Corte Inglis Auchan Other Market Information Selecting a suitable trading partner. Professional and formal business handling is often required. Prompt and proactive attitudes towards communication and follow ups are appreciated. Outside the larger cities foreign language is hardly spoken. 130
