Alibaba is slowly lifting the veil on its U.S. marketplace 11Main.com, which is hoping to launch publicly next month. Some merchants have received emails informing them that their shop is "open and ready for orders" after several months of testing and events where "friends and family" could make purchases from the sellers' shops. The marketplace has been funding promotions as an incentive for shoppers to make purchases. "That means your customers get a discount at no cost to you," it explained in the letter to sellers. "11 Main discounts will be deducted from the amount you receive at the time of the order, and then paid to you based on your Payout Preferences." One 11 Main seller told EcommerceBytes that during the beta period, they received orders in which the purchasers received a 15% discount on all items, and 11 Main reimbursed the seller for the discount. In spite of the fact it hasn't publicly launched, 11 Main is running ads on...

alifornia’s citrus industry has welcomed new that China is set to re-open its market to the state's fruit, subject to implementation of a new protocol. A major destination for California oranges, China abruptly closed its doors to the state's citrus over a year ago citing incidences of decayed fruit on arrival. The USDA's Animal Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has been working with its Chinese counterparts to come up with a protocol that would address the alleged problems. The new protocol involves trimming of tree "skirts" sufficiently above the orchard floor as well as a regimen of spraying to minimise the incidence of phytopthora syringae, commonly known as "brown rot" in oranges. Once in place, the programme will run for two years with an efficacy review between the end of the 2014/15 season and before the start of the following campaign. "Our industry has been working for sometime with the USDA to get this protocol...

After a brief dip, kiwifruit prices are on the upswing again and should stay high through the summer. Importers have known for some time that the Chilean kiwifruit crop would be 60-70% lighter than last year, thanks to severe September freezes, said Chris Kragie, deciduous fruit manager for Madera, Calif.-based Western Fresh Marketing. Less predictable was the fact that the Chilean deal was going to be “front-loaded,” Kragie said, with unexpectedly large volumes coming in early in the season. “Prices dipped by two or three dollars” a box as a result, Kragie said. By early May, however, they were starting to come back up, he said. On May 8, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported prices of $21-24 for 19.8-pound containers of haywards 25-27s from Chile, up from $18-20 last year at the same time. Brian Lapin, salesman for Madera-based Stellar Distributing Inc., said the kiwifruit deal is as hot as it’s been in the past decade. “We had...

Grapefruit imports from South Africa are still light, but importers and officials are seeing growth. The star ruby grapefruit deal is still relatively new, but it is growing, said Marc Solomon, senior vice president for St. Laurent, Quebec-based Capespan North America. “First arrivals will be in July, and they will continue for July and August,” Solomon said. U.S. sales of South African grapefruit are expected to double over last season, but, at 24,000 cartons, the deal is still relatively small, said Tom Cowan, South African citrus manager for DNE World Fruit Sales, Fort Pierce, Fla. Suhanra Conradie, CEO of the Western Cape Citrus Producers Forum, also expects more of the star ruby variety to find their way to the U.S. this season. “Star ruby is an excellent fruit,” she said. “It’s in demand from South Africa, and the plan is to increase volumes shipped in 2014”.
