There are almost 2500 varieties of pears. The Alexander Lucas variety has a sweet taste with little acidity, and its aroma is considered only moderate. Origin

The main growing countries are France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, Germany, Chile, Argentina, South Africa, the USA, and China. Imports from overseas make it possible to offer pears all year round, with a peak in supply from August to October for European goods and February to July for overseas imports.
