What's behind the price
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 melon charentais can shift week to week.
The yearlong trend has been easing. Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.

Imported from France and Spain; peak supply runs through the UK summer (June to September).
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.
Sold per piece; choose melons that smell fragrant at the stem end and feel heavy for their size, as scent indicates ripeness.
