Global exports remain at a level of around 220,000 tonnes, with the exception of 1994. World imports of quick-frozen strawberries have reached a record level of 91,000 tonnes.

North-American production is focused on cultivated and wild blueberries. 76,840 tonnes of cultivated blueberries and 65,770 tonnes of wild blueberries (this being an increase of 13% with respect to 1996) were produced in 1997.
