2. Sourcing agricultural raw materials
Fruit prices are not fixed, but vary according to a number of criteria, including the law of supply and demand. The abundance of the harvest, or the time of purchase, must be taken into account: fruit bought out of season will obviously be more expensive than at the height of production. Similarly, a very large harvest is likely to result in lower prices.
Other factors, such as weather conditions, influence pricing. Frost and rainfall have a direct impact on product volumes and quality.
Origin and variety also have a significant impact. Finally, the price of fruit also depends on the production method or the presence of a quality mark.
