Consumer spending patterns in recent years show considerable changes in buyer preferences for fresh vegetables and fruit, according to results from a number of national survey sources. One of the most detailed of these is the Statistics NZ three year household economic survey(HES), which ranks the popularity of fresh vegetables and fruit by aggregate annual expenditure across the country.

These are indicative prices only, please call for an update.

Avocado demand continues to strengthen year on year. Avocado prices have been remarkably consistent all season, with big tag1 fruit (80ct or bigger) wholesaling up to $100 plus a crate, ranging to small (120ct) tag2 fruit around the $50 mark. Prices are higher in the South Island and certainly making up for the extra freight cost.

December lemon prices have been at a consistently good level, with medium and large tag1 fruit wholesaling at $70 plus a crate ($3.50 a kg), and tag2 fruit at around $40 ($2 per kg).
