Ponta Delgada ,  May 18, 2017

Export of Azorean products to USA doubled in one year and quadrupled in five years

The Vice-President of the Government revealed today that the increase in sales of Azorean products has been registered not only in the domestic market but also in external markets, noting that exports to the USA doubled in a year.
 
"Our exports have increased significantly, so I can say today that we have doubled the export of Azorean products in 2015, compared to 2014. In five years, we have quadrupled exports to the USA, having exceeded 12 million Euros last year. In 2010, the figure stood at three million Euros," said Sérgio Ávila.
 
The government official who oversees the area of Business Competitiveness spoke at the end of a visit to the regional products market promoted by Solmar Hypermarket. According to him, "these figures not only reveal the dynamics of regional production, but also the considerable increase in the export capacity of our products and their appreciation."
 
Sérgio Ávila also praised the "promotion of Azorean products and the 'Azores Brand' that is being carried out by commercial establishments in the Region," stressing the "extraordinary evolution" of "quality, diversity and quantity" of products bearing the 'Azores Brand' seal and Azorean products in general.
 
"The emphasis on the enhancement of our products, the development of the 'Azores Brand' and the promotion of Azorean products has yielded excellent results in terms of sales", stressed the Vice President. In this regard, he stressed the decisive contribution of companies to innovation and of large commercial establishments to the dissemination and appreciation of Azorean products, "because they also regard them as added value in their sales volume."
