Why the number moves
UK produce moves through the wholesale markets — New Covent Garden and the regional markets — fed by British growers in season and by Spanish, Dutch and other imports out of season. That's why a case rate on purple sprouting broccoli can shift week to week.
The yearlong trend has been easing (up about 27% over the last month). Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Seasonality in the UK
A classic British late-winter and spring crop, at its best roughly February to April.
Per case or per kilo?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-kilo rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Buy by the kg in season for the best price and flavour; choose firm shoots with tight, unopened buds and no yellowing. Use promptly as it wilts quickly.
