The Chilean-Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Culture is pleased to announce significant developments in bilateral trade relations between Chile and Indonesia. As a result of extensive negotiations, Chilean fruits and nuts will soon be exported to Indonesia, a market of nearly 300 million people with a projected annual growth rate of around 5% over the next five years.

Thanks to Indonesia's health clearance, six Chilean products will begin to be exported to the Asian country. These include blueberries, cherries, kiwis, and grapes, all in frozen format. Additionally, shelled and unshelled dried nuts produced in Chile will also be included in the exports.

This development is a strategic opportunity for the Chilean industry to diversify its export destinations. The move was informed by the Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Ignacia Fernández, along with the National Director of ODEPA, Andrea García, the General Director of ProChile, Ignacio Fernández, and representatives of SAG, the National Society of Agriculture (SNA), Fedefruta, Chilenut, and Chilealimentos.

Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the bilateral agenda with Indonesia continues to progress, with the successful conclusion of the negotiation process that will allow the export of nuts and frozen fruit. This reflects the resilience of both nations and their commitment to fostering robust trade relations.

In other news, Chilean cuisine is also making its mark in Indonesia. A Chilean content creator, @daniela.lorenzo, recently shared a video on her TikTok account showcasing a restaurant in Indonesia serving Chilean food, including sopaipillas, humitas, and empanadas. This is a testament to the growing cultural exchange between the two countries, further strengthening their ties.

The Chilean-Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Culture is excited about these developments and looks forward to facilitating further growth and cooperation between Chile and Indonesia in the fields of commerce and culture.
