Polish organic food on rise despite crisis

Warsaw, Poland -- The sale of organic food has been on a steady rise in the past years in Poland and producers expect a 20 percent growth this year, Polish Radio said.

The organic food sector is worth some $45 million per year, a large amount for Poland but still low when compared with Western European countries, the radio said Tuesday.

The sale of organic food has been successful and producers say they expect they will keep the pace despite a global financial crisis.

Marian Owerko, president of the Bakalland company said he plans to continue
selling products already well-positioned on the market. He said consumers should keep buying products with which they are familiar even during the economic crisis.

Another manager said his firm will remove some foreign products from store shelves and replace them with Polish-made organic food products.
