Polish apple traders are looking for more Chinese buyers for their fruit, after the European nation signed a trade agreement with China on exports of its iconic bicolored apples to the Chinese market. "We are talking with potential trade companies, as well as supermarkets about selling our apples in China, which is an important market for us to expand the export volume," said Waldemar Zolcik, chairman of the Association of Polish Fruit and Vegetables Distributors. As a country related to the Belt and Road Initiative, Poland is the leading apple producer in Europe, producing 4 million metric tons of the iconic bicolored apples annually, according to Zalewski. "We have also exported apples to Hong Kong, which is a promising market for Polish apple traders," said Stasiak.
