Dates announced for 3rd Global Citrus Congress

The World Citrus Organisation (WCO) and Fruitnet Media International will host the third edition of the Global Citrus Congress on 30 November 2022 at 13:00-16:00 CET.

Following the global success of the first two editions, this year’s online event will again bring together leading citrus growers, marketers, retailers and analysis from around the world to explore strategies to deliver strong growth as global supply increases.

Under the theme ‘The outlook for citrus in unpredictable times’, the three-hour event will cover the latest forecast for the Northern Hemisphere production season by the WCO, as well as providing an in-depth analysis of the current global citrus market trends by CIRAD, the WCO’s technical secretariat, and discussion on key industry trends with leading citrus stakeholders.

The 2022 edition of the Global Citrus Congress follows two successful editions in 2020 and 2021. WCO co-chair José Antonio Garcia Fernandez commented: “The Global Citrus Congress will be a great opportunity to discuss major issues affecting our business model in a global scenario of great uncertainty.

“Unity, communication, coordination and working together are essential in these times of change. The WCO’s mission is to help this goal with transparency, facilitating the debate. This is the reason why the 2022 Global Citrus Congress is a must”.

WCO co-chair Justin Chadwick added: “This November the Global Citrus Congress will again gather leading citrus stakeholders from countries across the globe.

“The congress presentations and discussions will provide an open exchange on citrus matters throughout the chain with a global approach. In a demanding market, citrus competitiveness can only be achieved through collaborative dialogue and action”.
