The price of Nanning cherries plummeted! The foodies are happy.
Cherry, the "star fruit" of the season, was on the hot search on January 5, and the price of delicious cherries was reduced, which brought good news to foodies. On January 6, the reporter visited some farmers’ markets and fruit shops in Nanning and learned that the price of cherries plummeted by half in one month. Some wholesalers said that the price of cherries may drop after a while.
Some stall owners specially put cherries in a pyramid-shaped stack, each with green slender stems, full flesh, crisp, sweet and juicy, which attracted the attention of many consumers.
At noon on the 6th, the reporter came to the fruit area of the farmer’s market in Dancun, Nanning, and saw that cherries were sold in many stalls. In the middle of last month, cherries were still hard to find in the market, and now cherries are placed in the C position. Xiao Li, a citizen of Nanning, is shopping for cherries in front of the stall. She told reporters that she likes eating cherries very much. Some time ago, she only saw cherries sold in large supermarkets, and the price per catty was close to that of 120 yuan, which made her feel too expensive. "Now cherries are sold in the vegetable market, and the price has dropped to 60 yuan per catty. It is very cost-effective to eat cherries now!"
Ms. Wei, the owner of a fruit stall, said: "When cherries were just listed, they were sold from 100 yuan to 120 yuan per catty, and the price was too expensive, so we didn’t dare to buy them. It was not until the end of last month that I bought the cherries and sold them back. Recently, the number of people who bought them gradually increased and the sales volume increased. "
The reporter noticed that the price of cherries in the whole farmer’s market in Dancun is a little larger than that in 65 yuan per catty, and a little smaller than that in 60 yuan per catty, mainly from Chile.
According to the reporter’s visit to a number of fruit shops in Jiangnan District, it is known that cherries are basically seen in every fruit shop, and the price is mainly based on the size of the head. The price of a larger one is 60 yuan, and the price of a smaller one is 55 yuan.
Compared with physical stores, the price of online shopping cherries has also dropped. In a fresh online shopping platform, a variety of cherries are marked with "price reduction". For example, the price of a gift box with a net weight of 2 kg of 3J pure fruit is 139 yuan, which is equivalent to 69.5 yuan a catty.
It is understood that most of the cherries currently on sale in the market are from Chile. They were listed at the end of November last year and will generally last until March this year. However, most local cherries in China grow in the Bohai Rim region, and the listing time is from the end of April to mid-August.
Why did the price of cherries drop? According to Mr. Huang, a local cherry wholesaler in Nanning, "The earliest cherries were shipped by air, and the price was really expensive. Later, they arrived by sea one after another. Recently, the price of cherries has really dropped a lot, because the volume of imports has increased recently, so there is a trend of price reduction." According to reports, there are also cherries from Chile to Hong Kong by sea in the later period, and it is expected that the price will drop after January 10.
Compared with previous years, the price reduction of cherries this year is very large. "It can be said that it is a’ cliff-like’ price reduction. In previous years, it has been steadily declining, and this year is a bit fierce." With the rapid increase of imported cherries entering the market, citizens can eat cherries at a price close to the people and realize the freedom of "star fruit".
