Items like cucumbers, tomatoes, and peppers are running low after bad weather in Europe and Africa Curiously
Huge supermarkets like Aldi and Tesco have had to limit the sale of some fruit and veg due to supply shortages.
Items like cucumbers, tomatoes, and peppers are running low in the UK after bad weather in regions of Europe and Africa, where they're grown, has disrupted the harvest. The problem started with tomatoes but has since widened to peppers, cucumbers, lettuce, salad bags, broccoli, cauliflower and raspberries.
Huge supermarkets like Tesco, Aldi, Asda and Morrisons have had to implement a limit to number of items people can purchase to ensure as many people can access their fresh fruit and vegetables.Tesco and Aldi have introduced limits of three per customer on sales of tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. Asda is limiting customers to three on sales of lettuce, salad bags, broccoli, cauliflowers and raspberry punnets, along with tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers.
The UK also gets some produce at this time of year from domestic growers and the Netherlands, but producers in both countries have reported cutting back on their use of greenhouses because of high energy prices. The British Retail Consortium said disruption was expected to last a few weeks. Retailers have stressed that buying limits are temporary until supplies improve in the coming days or weeks, helped by the UK moving into its growing season.
