Tajikistan reduced its fruit exports to Kazakhstan in 2025, with shipments of grapes and stone fruits declining and the country failing to rank among the key suppliers in several product categories.
According to data from the LS portal covering January–October 2025, Tajikistan remains one of the suppliers of fruits to the Kazakh market, although its export volumes continue to lag behind those of neighboring countries.
Grapes remain Tajikistan’s main export item. During the first ten months of 2025, Kazakhstan imported 9,400 tons of grapes from Tajikistan, down 9.7 percent year-on-year. The value of these shipments amounted to approximately $3 million.
A decline was also recorded in the stone fruit segment. Exports of peaches, plums, cherries, and apricots totaled 1,700 tons, which is 2.5 times less than in the same period last year. The value of imports in this category was estimated at around $795,000.
In several other fruit categories, Tajikistan did not rank among Kazakhstan’s main suppliers. Apples were mainly imported from China, while watermelons came primarily from Iran. Additional fruit supplies were sourced from Chile and Algeria.
Overall, Tajikistan’s fruit exports to Kazakhstan in 2025 were largely concentrated on grapes and stone fruits, with both categories experiencing a decline in shipment volumes.
