Fruits and vegetables in Greece seem to be breaking new pricing records.
Prices for fruit from Imathia reach approximately 16.39 euros per kilogram. The price, unimaginable to consumers, is in complete contrast to the value that manufacturers receive for their product.
According to complaints from producers, cherries often “leave the fields” without invoices, which gives intermediaries an excellent chance to make any markup on the product they want.
According to producers, cherries leave farms for 4-5 euros, and then appear on store shelves… for 16 euros per kilogram! And in this mad race for profit, the losers are consumers.
The same thing happens with potato prices, as previously reported by Athens News.
