A leading Welsh greengrocer has said he has had the "best" February week ever as supermarket shoppers deal with shortages of fresh fruit and vegetables. Geraint Owen, who runs independent grocers Tatws Trading, has accused the big supermarkets of being "greedy" and not wanting to pay the market value for produce.
Supermarkets such as Lidl, Tesco Morrisons, Aldi and Asda say they have been forced to impose limits on the numbers of peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes shoppers can buy, and have blamed bad weather for the issue.
But Mr Owen says there can be some issues at this time of year because it is between the end of the Spanish and Morocco tomato growing season and the start of the traditional British growing season, which can mean that some of the produce is more expensive.
