Currently, there is an increased demand for carrots in our market, which in turn is the main factor in the price increase over the past few weeks. Now 1 kilogram of produce can be purchased for 11-14 hryvnias, which is almost 20% more than a week ago, experts for the EastFruit platform report.
According to analysts, the main reason for such increased interest in the product is that the New Year holidays are approaching and everyone is trying to stock up on products.
Also, according to the main players of the market, a larger number of companies are holding back sales for now, as they hope to sell quality carrots at a higher price later, because of this, the supply is somewhat limited, which also leads to an increase in prices.
But analysts note that this is most likely a temporary phenomenon and the number of products on the market will increase in the near future, which will lead to a decrease in prices.
