How popular is the Polish apple?

75% of the total export volume of fruits, while also representing more than 1% of the value of Polish agri-food exports.
Poland hosts numerous exhibitions and expos showcasing fruits and agricultural products, including events like the Ptak Warsaw Expo, the Fruit and Vegetable Fair at Targi Kielce, the Polagra Fair, and Fruit logistica. These events are held in major cities across Poland.
These events aim to assist agricultural product producers in gaining knowledge from others. Additionally, they focus on promoting energy efficiency, machinery, fertilizers, plant protection products, and solutions to address potential challenges.
Why should you choose apples from Poland?
Tasty and High quality
The emphasis on plant protection and the careful use of pesticides and fertilizers contribute to making Polish apples healthy and of the highest quality. Additionally, the expertise and experience of apple producers, along with their training, play a crucial role in ensuring the quality of the apples.
Furthermore, the fertile soil and favorable weather conditions in Poland support the growth of apple trees, resulting in the production of excellent fruits, which benefits Poland's agricultural apple products.
Grójec region’s apples

In the sixteenth century, Queen Bona received vast tracts of land in this region and established a royal plantation of fruit trees, predominantly apples. Over the centuries that followed, Polish apples became a staple not only on Polish tables but also around the world.
What makes Grójec apple different?
The apples of the Grójec region exhibit higher acidity compared to apples of the same variety from other regions, with an average acidity level exceeding 5%. They also display a pronounced blush, attributed to elevated levels of pigments under the skin, particularly anthocyanins and carotenoids.
