January 19 Afternoon Jinxian Garlic Price Trends

Jinxiang warehouse garlic market prices weakened throughout the day; market trading activity was sluggish, with a noticeable increase in available supply. Sellers’ willingness to offload inventory intensified, with some proactively contacting buyers and offering larger discounts. Buyers’ purchasing intent remained weak—many adopted a wait-and-see stance or reduced procurement volumes. Only buyers with urgent demand selectively purchased goods at lower prices, resulting in only small-volume transactions and price declines of 0.02–0.03 RMB per jin. Overall, discounting across the entire warehouse inventory widened significantly.
