D P Global Ventures (DPGV), the agricultural wing of the David Pieris Group of Companies, recently concluded its first export consignment to the Russian market. The first shipment consisted of a range of dehydrated fruits such as mango, banana and pineapple.

CEO, DPGV Shammi Karunaratne said; “Although we are relatively new to the industry, with our unique offerings, our strong connection to the farmers through our Group’s operations and commitment to ensure our farmers are trained in the most environmentally friendly processes as well as being organic certified and our investment in R & D and production facilities have all allowed us to create our own niche in the industry.”
