Kiwis
The Kiwis which we have available origin from the area of Macedonia (Pieria, Kavala, Pella, Imathia) and in minor quantities from the area of Ipeiros (Messologi, Arta, Preveza).
In Greece we cultivate kiwis of Hayward variety and there are also Mega Kiwi (Tselechidis cultivar) in small quantities. Harvest is done by the end of October and the fruits are directly stored in refrigerators. Kiwis are not available for sale directly after the crop. The fruits are ready for the market by November until late March always depending on the volume of the crop and market demands. |
