Morocco winery eyes import expo for China foray

RABAT - Mamoun Sayah, general manager of Morocco's agricultural firm Red Farm, is readying to introduce the company's wines into the massive Chinese market through the first China International Import Expo.

The CIIE is scheduled to be held from Nov 5 to 10 in Shanghai.

"Our winery is expanding its production capacity," Sayah said. Red Farm used to produce 2.5 million bottles of wine each year. The winery owns 300 hectares of grapes, 50 hectares of which will be harvested for the first time this year, he said.
