01 / OUR STARTING POINT
Uganda → Kenya → Africa
The harvest is only the beginning. A Ugandan coffee business may have a lot ready to sell. A Kenyan grower may have fruit ready to ship. Before a buyer can assess either offer, product identity, available volume and supporting records need to tell one consistent story. Crossgates helps make that story inspectable.

Monthly figures are released after the reporting month. Annual figures are historical trade totals. Moving numbers are a presentation of those published figures, not a continuously updating price feed.
What these numbers mean · sources & coverage
World Bank WITS / UN Comtrade, 2024 annual gross trade values. Rankings exclude the EU aggregate to avoid counting it alongside member countries. Re-exports are included; an exporting country is not necessarily the growing origin. Reporting gaps can change rankings: these are the leading reporters in each source table, not a complete worldwide league table. Import values and export values use different valuation bases and should not be added together.
Fresh fruit is represented by avocados; vegetables by fresh/chilled capsicum and pimenta peppers; fish by frozen fillets; nuts by cashews. These examples are not totals for their wider sectors. Other dried fruit excludes separately classified dried fruits such as raisins. Annual data is deliberately separated from 2026 monthly indicators. The regional update uses 2025 annual records and available 2026 monthly releases, each individually dated. These figures are published research snapshots, not a live API feed.
