As part of its mission, Colombia’s Rural Development Agency (ADR) commits to providing advice, promoting and partnering Colombian farmer organizations in international markets. Their aim is to ensure quality, variety and added value of exotic fruits, vegetables, coffee and cacao beans, so they are acknowledged in Asian markets.
These products represent excellency of Colombian agriculture and are the result of high-quality harvesting, unique flavors only grown in the fertile lands of our country, strengthened by climate diversity.
Each one reflects our rural communities’ history of resilience and their new development route to associativity, opening new opportunities for women, youth, indigenous peoples, peace signatories, and victims of the armed conflict.
The ADR stand in the Business Macro-Round “Colombia, Country of Beauty”, at Osaka 2025 World Expo, widens opportunities for higher added value sectors, such as agriculture. This effort is aligned with the Colombian “Government of Change” Development Plan and, under the vision of ADR’s President, Cesar Pachon, promotes market diversification and inclusive production as engines of direct opportunities and economic growth for rural communities.
Participation of farm producers in this international commercial platform is key to witness, learn and comply with international standards, to access effectively to global markets, and maximize the impact on their agricultural businesses.
