Zimbabwe's exports of fresh peas and beans to the European Union (EU) have increased by 269% over the last five years, according to data released by national trade development and promotion organisation, ZimTrade.
Exports of the legumes to the EU rose from US$5.4 million in 2010 to about US$20 million last year, said a ZimTrade statement.
Despite the significant increase, Zimbabwe's export market share to the EU remains at just 1.3% compared to other African suppliers such as Kenya and Egypt. The major market destinations in the EU are the UK, Netherlands and France.
