The article discusses the pricing and sales trends of cabbage in Germany, highlighting a shift in marketing strategies. It notes that cabbage has been available in discount stores and department stores since September, with a peak in sales in the first half of the month. The traditional 10-kilogram Raschel bags for home storage have disappeared due to high costs, which this year have risen to 0.85 euros per kilogram from a stable 0.53 euros in the past four years. The price fluctuation is attributed to external factors, with the majority of cabbage sold being locally sourced, despite the occasional import from the Netherlands and Belgium. Organic cabbages and specific variety names are less common in marketing promotions, and there has been a growing trend to highlight regional production in cabbage promotions.
