'Low availability of Dutch and Belgian tomatoes'
In the case of TOVS, Turkish and Spanish deliveries predominated, with Italian tomatoes making up the bulk. Cherry tomatoes came primarily from Italy and Spain, while Turkey and Spain set the tone for beef tomatoes. Round tomatoes came in mainly from Morocco, Turkey, and Spain. Due to the low availability, the Dutch and Belgian shipments were rather small for this time of the season.
