Granadilla & Maracuja
Granadilla and Maracuja from Colombia are both not available. This due to heavy rain.
Baby Pineapples
In the Baby pineapples from South Africa are limited due to bad wheather. However the baby pineapples from Mauritius are good available.
Papaya
Papaya has been very limited lately, and this situation will continue for some weeks at least. The rains that have pouring in the flowering time already reduced the crops earlier, and now the wintertime in Brasil produces a lot less fruit than expected. Prices in the Brasilian local market are extremely high this year. Together with high airfreightcosts and the strong dollar this all make papaya prices rise in Europe.
