David HollandAnd how much are you paying for them?
Nigel MaudeI doubt the UK customers will find any of the fruit and veg cheaper. But more profit to the shops. That's ok to you, I believe, just as long the "apron string" is cut. Price and longer transportation is irrelevant to you too, obviously.
What a shame that Mallorca now have to sell all that stuff to foreigners.
Well potatoes. Indian, Egypt, Morocco, jerseys. U.K. early’s Majorca hardly seen now. Morocco, Kenya, Peru , Argentina, Israel, USA ,for green beens asparagus all veg and out of season fruits. The U.K. supply chain reach.
Obviously found somewhere cheaper to import from, now no longer tied to Brussels apron strings.
