"We have an extremely large offer now. The watermelon season is coming to an end, for sure. You can already see it in the weather and in the offers. Therefore, I think that those who want to enjoy it better hurry up. Because now is an extremely favorable time. In another 10-15 days, there will probably be much less watermelons on the market," said Pendzin.

He noted that there are also imported watermelons in Ukraine.

"So in this situation, we have this picture, which has led to a 35% drop in watermelon prices compared to last year," the expert said.
