Produce Pricing May 2008 - Perishables Group

With bananas and onions at opposite ends of the spectrum, Steve Lutz of The Perishables Group passes on information on retail produce pricing in May. From Steve:


Attached is the latest retail price information through the end of May 2008. I pulled the four week average for May compared to the same period last year. As you can see, the average retail for total produce is about 3% higher….with a lot of variation.

Let me know if you have any questions.
