Dried grapes export strategy (DG25001)
Project start date: 10 April 2026
Project completion date: 24 August 2026
This project will develop a practical export strategy to support the future growth and resilience of the Australian dried grape industry.
While domestic demand remains strong, forecast increases in production and global demand for premium dried grapes highlight the need to expand into export markets. Currently, exports represent only a small share of total production, signalling opportunity for growth.
The strategy will identify priority markets, assess industry export readiness, and outline clear actions to improve export capability and competitiveness. It will provide industry with a coordinated roadmap to guide decision‑making and future investment.
This project is a strategic levy investment in the Hort Innovation Dried Grape Fund
