spidermike007 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 If so, why are the wholesale prices under 20 baht per kilo? Most mango growers are starving right now. High demand usually equates with a fair price. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they might have the number one spot in the Durian export ranking.Most of Thai Durians go to China, that's why the local price of Durians has shot up over the last decade.

fgmr Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Does anyone know where I can buy Thai Mangoes in the UK? The ones I see on the UK supermarket shelves look as if they need returning to country of origin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
