The strike threatens the entire sector

In South Africa, berry producers fear that the strike by port workers will permanently slow down exports
 
This strike comes during the peak of the berry export season. Which means that just 1 day of port stoppage has an effect on the whole value chain and can cause exports to drop
 
In 2020, blueberry exports from South Africa increased by more than 27% despite the impact of Covid-19.
