What crisis?
https://metro.co.uk/2023/02/24/fruit...door-18341050/
A greengrocer who said he’s snapping up fruit and veg supermarkets won’t pay for now has ‘queues out of the door’.
Thomas Hagon, who runs Reg The Veg greengrocers in Clifton, Bristol, said customers are scrambling for tomatoes and peppers as they can’t get them in larger stores.
He claims the produce is ‘there for supermarkets to purchase’ but the price is too high for them – but smaller shops like him are willing to take the hit.
‘We had shortages due to availability and low numbers about three weeks ago and supermarkets were still pumping out vegetables at low prices,’ the 39-year-old said.
