Chat - Ksenia Evdokimova May 23

More U.S. apple exporters - this time not from Washington state - are exploring the Russian market, and I chat with Ksenia Evdokimova about the trip today. Ksenia emailed the above picture of the group.

ksenia.evdokimova: (= have just finished with Apple people! 20 members of the group are about to leave St. Pete

1:51 PM me: What a week for you - again. How did their trip go - what were some highlights for our Fresh Talk readers?

1:54 PM ksenia.evdokimova: This visit was a first trip for the group of exporters from Michigan, New York, Virginia, California, Pennsylvania..jee, I hope I didn't miss anyone. Trip consisted of introductory seminar for importers (attracted over 20 interested Russian buyers, with attendance over 90!%), visit to the leading container terminal, meetings with shipping lines, retail and warehouse tour. Interest that Russian buyers showed the group is very inspiring.
