Hackers sabotage Saudi govt websites RIYADH: Several government web- sites in Saudi Arabia were sabotaged in a series of heavy cyberattacks from abroad in recent days, disabling them briefly until the attacks were repelled, the gov- ernment said. An investigation traced the “coordinated and simultaneous attacks” to hundreds of Internet protocol addresses in a number of countries, an unnamed source at the Saudi RIDE Interior Ministry told state news agency SPA.

  • Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast
    CBI Ministry of Foreign Affairs Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast Commissioned by The Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries (CBI) Agri-Logic August 2019 Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast Value Chain Analysis for CBI Final edited version 12 August 2019 Prepared by: Herma Mulder Sanne Steemers Jean Bosco Dibouloni Jacques Tamini Mohamed Ali Niang 1 Executive summary Background and scope This value chain analysis was commissioned by CBI (Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries) in order to identify the most promising product market combinations for processed fruit from Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire and Mali. Export market competitiveness While tropical dried fruits and tropical frozen fruits are still relatively small compared to the total processed fruit market size, we see that tropical fruits are gaining market share from native European fruits. Preserved fruits (mainly canned pineapple), fruit juices, concentrates (for juices) and coconut oil are larger markets, but they are stable or in some cases declining. Purées for the baby food segment and coconut derivatives other than coconut oil are interesting growth segments when the high quality and food safety standards required are achieved. For all processed fruits market segments, the same countries appear as trade hubs for the European market: The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Belgium and Italy. Market trends provide opportunities and threats for the development of a processed fruits segment. Consumer demands for healthy and sustainable products are increasing. The shift in consumer dietary patterns and the growing vegan population is expected to drive the growth of the processed fruit market.
