ISSUE 162 "FRESH IS BEST"

Honeydew Melon is in extremely short supply due to the change over of growing regions. We expect the shortage to last at least 4-6 weeks and will be substituting Piel De Sapo wherever possible.

ISSUE 161 "FRESH IS BEST"

The Pineapple supply has shortened dramatically. This is due to growing gaps from the floods and continual heavy rainfall in Queensland last summer and autumn last year. Due to Pineapple's longer time frame to grow, we now see shortages. We expect this to last at least 4-6 weeks until we move to central Queensland growing regions.

ISSUE 160 "FRESH IS BEST"

North Queensland growing regions are now in full swing, so we've seen a much better supply of Tomatoes, Capsicums and Eggplant arriving to the market. Tomatoes, in particular, have eased in price and are great quality and value.

ISSUE 159 "FRESH IS BEST"

Cold weather across the entire Eastern seaboard over the past week has really slowed growth of many of the vegetable lines which has in turn pushed some prices up. Tomatoes in particular are very short in supply and expensive. This will last 2-3 weeks until the North Queensland growing region gears up after which we will see much more supply hit the market.
