In addition to learning about the supply and marketing of fish and fruits during the Spring Festival, he also paid homage to wholesalers and working colleagues in the market. He affirmed that prices and supplies would remain stable this year and that the public could feel at ease for the Spring Festival.

At 4: 00 in the morning, Mayor Lin Jialong, accompanied by Chen Baozhen, chairman of Taichung Fish Market, and Chen Xianmin, general manager of Taichung Fish Market, inspected the fish auction and greeted vendors one by one. He was also concerned about the current supply and market situation. At about 5: 00, he moved to the fruit and vegetable market, accompanied by Tsai Cheng-Lang, chairman of Taichung Fruit and vegetable Transportation and Marketing Co., Ltd., and Weng Tien-man, general manager of Taichung Fruit and vegetable Transportation and Marketing Co., Ltd., accompanied by Weng Tien-man, inspected the market auction situation. Wholesalers say that recently, the climate is stable and the supply of fruits and vegetables is sufficient to meet the market demand for the Spring Festival.

Mayor Lin Jialong affirmed that after Chen Baozhen, chairman of the fish market, took over last year, he actively strengthened coordination with producing areas and frozen processors to meet the demand for fish during the Spring Festival, stabilize the overall fish price, and strengthen the quality check of fish products.

In terms of the fruit and vegetable market, Weng Tianman, general manager of the fruit and vegetable market, pointed out that the average daily supply of fruit during the Spring Festival is about 450 tons, and the average trading price is between 55 and 60 yuan. Due to the stable climate and ample supply of vegetables, the average daily trading volume is about 150 tons, and the average trading price is between 14 and 16 yuan per kilogram. In addition to fruits with auspicious implications, lotus fog, dates and snow pears are also very popular during the Spring Festival.

The Economic Development Bureau said that before the Spring Festival, the municipal government began to go to the wholesale markets to understand the supply situation, and the wholesale markets also actively deployed the supply, and the transactions were hot, and they also asked the market to actively check the prices to avoid artificial price manipulation. Apart from stabilizing the prices of fish and fruits and vegetables, in order to meet the needs of the public and strengthen the deployment of pig sources this year, the meat market has recently auctioned more than 2500 to 2800 heads a day, with a transaction price of between $72 and $76 per kilogram, so that the public can have a good New year.
