The importer has not yet jumped on the bandwagon for mini-watermelons. “We focus primarily on larger sizes 2 to 6. I think the mini-watermelons are mostly interesting this season because of the higher unit price, but we expect a supply of mini-watermelons as of next year as well, because we have seen consumer demand shifting to this.” Frukar’s overseas melon season will be followed by supply from Spain, Italy and Morocco next month.
