Supercharge your food export strategy

Act as an export market analyst specialising in fresh produce. I export Fresh mangoes and I am considering Western Europe (Germany, France, Benelux) as well as Russia/EAEU, the Gulf region and East Asia.

Compare these regions and rank them for the next 12–24 months based on:
- import demand for my product
- buyer preferences (quality specs, certifications, packaging)
- logistics reliability and transit times from my origin
- typical payment terms and risk level for SME exporters
- main regulatory or geopolitical risks I should watch.

End with a short recommendation: which 1–2 regions should I prioritise first and why, if my goal is to build stable, repeatable export volumes?
