The quantitative quota for banana imports has opened from 11 to 14 March for the first half of 2017, the ministry of Trade told APS.
This quota of 90,000 tons is divided into two sections of 45,000 tons each covering the first two quarters of 2017, said the source.
In this regard, the minister invited economic operators, who satisfy the conditions required by the current legislation and who meet the criteria set by the specifications, to apply for an import license of fresh bananas by depositing it to the trade directorate of the territorially competent province.
