THIS WEEKS UPDATE - 20th January 2020
Good Morning everyone,
With the unfortunate situation of bush fires and droughts throughout the country affecting both produce and transport routes, there have been quite a few price amendments this week.
Beetroots, Lebanese Cucumbers have increased in price. Asparagus, Green Beans, Chinese Cabbage and Chokos are exorbitant and scarce this week, so please try to substitute where possible. Broccoli, Cauliflower and Pumpkins remain steady, however kindly note that they are still expensive in the market place.
Strawberries (Medium, Large, XL) have increased in price slightly and we have also seen a price increase in Apricots and Plums this week. Bananas have also increased slightly. Speciality Apples such as Fuji and Pink Ladies have come back in price. Navel Oranges are not available in the market this week, however Valencia Oranges have decreased in price. Best buy this week are Blueberries and Stone fruits such as Peaches and Nectarines. Cherries have also come back, so now is the best time to buy before they go out of season.
Kindly note that Mandarins have now finished for the season. We expect them to come back in April.
