The market has remained fairly well oriented despite a clear slowdown in yellow fruit sales. First, school holidays have kicked off in most European countries (Italy, Germany, Spain, Hungary, Russia, Poland, France). Secondly, due to the heat wave that has hit Europe, there is increased competition with the season's fruits, especially in Hungary (watermelon in Italy and peaches, nectarines and apricots in Spain). Nevertheless, overall supplies are still decreasing and are in line with the average seasonal trend. The slump in volumes from Africa and the deficit in imports from the West Indies and Costa Rica have been offset by arrivals from Colombia and Ecuador, which are still markedly higher than average. The market supply and demand are therefore still balanced. In this setting, official prices have slightly declined but the actual prices charged on most domestic markets have remained steady.
