Mandarin oranges to cost up to 60% more than last year


GEORGE TOWN: The price of lokam (mandarin oranges) from China will be dearer by 20% to 60% this year due to a shortage of supply.

Sunshine Wholesale Mart Sdn Bhd retail operations manager Yee Kam Ming said the crop was slightly smaller compared to last year due to the drought in the Fujian province from June to October last year.
