Islamabad Pakistan is all set to export juicy cherries in the coming weeks as the harvesting season has started in the country.
A 14-member Chinese delegation visited Gilgit-Baltistan where they signed multiple memorandums of understanding (MoUs) this week to facilitate cherry trade, according to a report published by Gwadar Pro on Sunday.
The delegation assessed the local cherry production, and inspected cherry orchards, packing units, and cold storage facilities, aiming to explore the potential of importing cherries to markets, said an official statement.
This year, the cherry farmers anticipate doubling their incomes and profits as China has indicated opening its doors to importing cherries for the first time from Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) which shares borders with China,
