SINGAPORE: Durian lovers have much to celebrate this durian season, which typically lasts from June to August, as some stalls have lowered their prices by as much as S$8 per kg while others are giving away the king of fruits for free.
For instance, his Mao Shan Wang durians go for S$15 per kg, when they would usually sell for S$18 to S$20, he told CNA. "The lower prices are because there is suddenly a greater durian haul . In April, it kept raining, then in May and June it stopped raining and was very hot. So the durians dropped faster. Usually they drop slowly," said Sam, who heads the D-Fruit branch over at Bangkit Road in Bukit Panjang.
The queue at the D-Fruit stall located in the market at Bangkit Road, which is giving away two durians to customers aged above 60 from 5pm each day until Jun 23, had already grown to around 30 people at 4.30pm on Tuesday . To take advantage of the lower costs, the D-Fruit branch at Choa Chu Kang over the weekend gave away 600kg of durians for free to people aged above 60.
