Why Your Green Beans Are Likely From Morocco: A Spanish Greengrocer Explains Market Realities
A local greengrocer, known by his TikTok handle 'fruterodebarrio', recently addressed a prevalent consumer query regarding the origin of produce, specifically green beans. In a video uploaded on March 23, 2024, the shop owner explained that a significant majority, approximately 90%, of the green beans available in the market are sourced from Morocco. This, he clarified, is primarily due to the substantial price difference, with Moroccan beans being considerably cheaper than their Spanish counterparts. "The national product is the best, and I would love to have only that," he stated, "but customers prioritize price." He further elaborated that Spanish produce, including green beans, often commands higher prices because a large portion is exported to Europe, where it fetches a premium. The greengrocer also took the opportunity to correct a misconception, confirming that the blueberries he sells are indeed of Spanish origin, specifically from Huelva. This explanation sheds light on the complex interplay of supply, demand, and international trade that influences the cost and availability of fresh produce for consumers.
