Poland’s market share of agricultural products within the European Union is on the increase, thanks to a hike in exports of cigarettes and beer, Rzeczpospolita reported on May 20.
Latest estimates from the Polish Agriculture Ministry show that Poland exported cigarettes to the tune of EUR 432.2 million in the first quarter of 2015.
Exports of Polish beer are also gaining ground, with international sales amounting to EUR 135.7 million, up by 14.5 percent year-on-year.
“Taking into account Poland’s total beer production, it can be ascertained that beer exports remains a niche, although the figure is rising and there is a chance of further rapid development,” comments Danuta Gut, Director of the Management Board at the Union of the Brewing Industry Employers in Poland.
