Marketing Veggies

[Ramses]

Wakubwa how would you go about marketing a produce like capsicum?
Something between 400-1000 kg weekly
Sitaki kuuzia kwa farm gate, would be happy to supply supermarkets or markets like Muthurwa.
Please share your experiences and worthwhile links to the market

Wapi huko?

Last year around this time nyanya had record prices. Thought this year would be the same. Unfortunately, sahii the market is flooded. A crate goes for @1K kwa syamba. I guess we had abundant rains countrywide towards the end of last year.

How many canning factories do we have around? What are the margins? How competitive are we? How much would such factory cost to set up?

Kirinyaga county
Saa hii nyanya iko scarce. Prices are north of 7k kwa farm gate. Niko kwa ground

 

[Budspencer]

Prices are north of 7k

Per crate?

Nimejipeleka town market kutafuta mama mboga direct for the first time and they didn't bother to look at me twice coz nyanya ni mob. Brokers were a bit interested but their prices ziko chini zaidi yet they expected me to deliver hapo sokoni. Best option was selling to individuals at the farm. Unajichunia na kulipa.
