New Zealand’s apples gaining ground in Taiwan

In 2022/23, the total was 131,252 tons, according to a recent USDA report. The United States remains the largest supplier of apples by volume but the market shares of Japan, New Zealand, and Chile are all extremely close behind. New Zealand’s tariff-free access and Japan’s high reputation among consumers are gradually eroding the market share of the United States and Chile. Taiwan’s domestic apple production of 1,406 tons remains small scale and accounts for one percent of total consumption.
