Tridge summary

Vegetable and fruit prices in Moroccan markets, especially in Inezgane, have soared to unprecedented levels. Tomatoes and potatoes have seen sharp price increases, with tomatoes costing up to 250 dirhams per 30 kg box and potatoes at 140 dirhams per box. Fruits such as apples, bananas, and pears are now priced between 15 and 20 dirhams per kilogram. The price surge is due to limited supply, high demand, and the resumption of exports to African countries. Earlier this year, prices had dropped when exports to Mauritania and other African markets were halted due to high customs duties, but they have risen again after these restrictions were lifted.
