Dajiang Net/Dajiang News Client News All-Media ReporterXie Mengli, internZhang Pingting, Zhang YingReport: With the coming of winter, "cherry freedom" has once again appeared in people’s field of vision, and cherries and strawberries known as "high-end fruits" have become the "signature fruits" of many fruit shops. In particular, the terms "the price of cherries was halved" and "the price of cherries finally began to fall" were once rushed to the hot search, causing widespread discussion among netizens.
Have Nanchang people really achieved fruit freedom this winter? What is the price of cherries in Nanchang market? In this regard, the reporter visited.
The price of cherries varies from store to store.
On January 8, the reporter went to a large supermarket chain on Zhongshan Road and saw that people came and went in the fruit area, and many customers bought all kinds of fruits. As a popular fruit in the season, cherries are filled with two stalls, from one J to four J’s, from 500 grams to exquisite gift boxes, all kinds and dazzling. As can be seen from the price tag, two J cherries imported from the supermarket are priced at 69.9 yuan per catty, while three J cherries from Chile are 79 yuan per catty. "This cherry is still quite expensive. If I buy it in Pinduoduo, it is about 5 kg, which is about 150 yuan, but the imported one is more expensive." Grandma Yang, who is shopping, told reporters.
Compared with the price of large supermarkets, the cost performance of street fruit shops and farmers’ markets seems to be higher. During a visit to a fruit shop in donghu district, the reporter found that two J cherries were 58 yuan per catty and three J cherries were 68 yuan per catty. According to the owner, Mr. Huang, compared with the end of last year, cherries of different qualities have dropped by 10 yuan to 20 yuan per catty. "It’s cheaper to buy cherries with three J’s like this pure Bing3 together, as long as it’s 298 yuan a box, and it tastes like a stone, so crisp and sweet, and there is more water." The owner enthusiastically introduced.
At the farmer’s market not far away, Mr. Liu, the stall owner, told reporters that two J cherries were in 120 yuan at the end of last year, and this year, as long as they are 63 yuan per catty, they are nearly half cheaper.
There is little difference between online and offline prices.
Subsequently, the reporter saw on the major e-commerce platforms that all online shopping of cherries can be reached the next day, and the price is distinguished by J number, which is not far from the price of offline fruit shops. The more you buy, the more favorable the price is, usually starting from 2 kg.
On another e-commerce APP, the discount is even stronger. The price of three J imported cherries is 198 yuan per catty, and each person is limited to 2 pieces, which is still in the replenishment state.
Overall pricewhyDescending?
Compared with the average price of cherries in 120 yuan per catty at the end of last year, supermarkets, fruit supermarkets and farmers’ markets all showed a certain downward trend. Just listed for about a month, the price was greatly reduced. What makes the value of "traffic star" half off?
"This is of course related to everyone’s needs. When cherries first came out, more people bought them. Most of the domestic cherries have not yet reached the season. Although imported cherries are fast but costly, they are naturally more expensive." A boss who has been doing fruit wholesale all the year round tells the reason. It said that the quality and price of cherries are different due to different places of origin. "Every time cherries are popular in winter, imported cherries with high cost and fast air transportation are more circulating in the market, while the time to market for domestic cherries in China is often spring and summer, so at the end of the year, demand is often in short supply and the market selling price is generally high. With the recent large-scale listing of cherries by sea, the transportation price is lower, and a larger number of cherries flow into the market, and the relationship between supply and demand changes accordingly. It is not surprising that there is a phenomenon of’ price cuts’. "
Although the price of cherries has gradually become popular with the people, there are certain differences in the selling price of cherries of different sizes, grades and places of origin in the market, and the price difference between each grade is quite large. Many fruit shops also remind them to be vigilant and cautious when buying, in order to prevent merchants from shoddy, filling small with large, and buying rationally.
