Brazil: Niagara grape price renews nominal record of the Cepea series

The prices for niagara grapes in Jales, SP have reached a record high in the Hortifruti/Cepea historical series, which began in 2001, with an average of R$ 7.71/kg from October 3rd to 7th. This represents a 6.40% increase from the previous week. The increased prices are due to a reduced supply in São Paulo and in the Minas Gerais competitor, Pirapora. Despite the price hike, the fruit has good flow and sales are steady, albeit not particularly robust.
