Mario Cruz
Mario Cruz is a merchant based in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, who has been vocal about the significant price increases of essential vegetables in the local market. During a recent monitoring visit to Mercado Dandy, he highlighted alarming price hikes, such as the increase of potatoes from 12 to 15 lempiras per pound and green beans from 15 to 25 lempiras. Cruz attributes these rising costs to seasonal rainfall, production issues, and supply shortages, stating that the city's high consumption coupled with low local production exacerbates the situation.
