Weekly Market Report Asia W 44-47 ; Blueberries and Cherries

 

 

By Daniela Barra.

Asian market suffers from first ships with larger volumes of blueberries from Peru, also affected by the incipient arrival of Chilean cherries.
The wholesale markets of Mainland China in Guangzhou, Jiaxing and Shanghai as main distribution centers, had a marked drop in sales prices this week, for new arrivals of blueberries from Peru.
The wholesale price of the 1.5KG format that was over 180-190 RMB dropped to 100-120 RMB in just one week. This drop is mainly attributed to the increase in volume offered, partly thanks to the almost simultaneous arrival of the Ever Lyric and Maersk Santana ships to the port of Hong Kong, with around 130 containers in total.
For the VENTURA variety, the 16+ mm caliber reaches the level of 100 RMB, while the 18+ caliber rises to over 105-110 RMB per box.
This new maritime volume also reaches an expectant market, with the first air shipments of early Chilean cherries having burst onto the scene and captured the attention of distributors and consumers in general.
