Domestic apples in demand, wholesale prices stagnating
Usually, after the hectic Christmas sales, the fruit and vegetable market cools down somewhat in January. Not so with apples. Traditionally, business regarding domestic dessert apples really picks up after the turn of the year, fueled by strong exports. This year was no exception. Sales of domestic produce increased by a further 20% on the already strong level of the previous month.
