Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Demand for Dried Fruit in Germany Germany is the largest foreign market for American dried prunes and is second only to the United Kingdom as a market for American dried fruit as a whole. The following report points out the principal factors bearing upon the German demand for dried fruit with particular reference to the trend in the per capita consumption of dried fruit, the competition of both imported and domestic fruit, and trade practices and marketing developments in the German dried fruit market. Iet imports of all dried fruit into Germany during the five years 1924-1928 averaged pounds annually compared with pounds during the period 1909-1913. This represents a per capita con sumption of about pounds in recent years compared with about pounds before the war. Approximately 38 per cent of the total dried fruit imported into Germany during the period 1924 - 1928 came from the United States. About 58 per cent of the imported prunes came from the United States and most of the remainder from Yugoslavia. Practically all of the currants came from Greece while Turkey supplied 60 per cent of the im ported raisins and the United States 21 per cent. It appears that American raisins have been supplanting Greek currants in the German market to a considerable extent during recent years. Most of the remaining dried fruit such as apples, apricots and peaches are supplied by the United States. A Study of the German income statistics reveals the fact that over three-fourths of the German population have incomes too small to permit f the purchase of any but the cheapest fruit. This group is probably able to buy dried fruit only When the price is relatively low. Price is, there fope. A very important consideration in determining not only the amount of dried fruit imported from the United States but also the competition to be encountered from dried fruit imported from other foreign countries.
