Fresh fruit and vegetable prices – our global connection - focuses on international influence, through imports and exports.
Fruit and vegetable prices are affected by factors such as temperature, weather, and availability. These factors include: freight costs, growing conditions and weather events overseas, biosecurity issues, and legislation. Fresh fruit and vegetables are a dietary staple for most East Africans.
We live in a country with a variable climate that allows us to produce a wide range of fresh fruit and vegetables during the year for export. With a variety to choose from of good quality.
However, we are also vulnerable to the ways international and domestic factors can affect the export prices paid for year-round supplies of greens and fruits and this gives us the price per unit (generally kilograms).
We make payment possible to account to account, branch, any forex, or mobile money, money online and transfer to our accounts.
