Vegetable prices at the wholesale market in Koyambedu Wholesale Market Complex in Chennai remained largely stable this week, with traders reporting no major fluctuations in the prices of most commonly consumed vegetables.
Market officials said the steady prices are mainly due to consistent arrivals of vegetables from neighboring agricultural regions and smooth supply chain operations. Farmers from parts of Tamil Nadu and nearby states have been sending regular shipments, ensuring that the market maintains balanced stock levels.
Traders noted that staples such as Tomato, Onion, Potato, and Cabbage have seen minimal price movement compared with previous weeks. Wholesale vendors reported that demand from retailers and restaurants across the city continues to remain steady without sudden spikes.
Officials at the Koyambedu Wholesale Market Complex also indicated that favorable weather conditions in key farming areas have helped maintain production levels, preventing the kind of supply shortages that typically trigger price increases.
Retail vendors across Chennai said the stable wholesale prices have allowed them to maintain consistent retail rates for consumers, providing some relief amid periodic fluctuations in food prices.
