Five factors affecting the price
- Duties and shipping costs
Malaysia mainly imports Yidu dried chilies from China. Import taxes, transportation costs or changes in trade policies can directly affect retail prices. For example, rising fuel prices or tightening customs policies may lead to short-term price increases.
- Seasonal changes
The main production areas of yidu chili are in Northeast China and Inner Mongolia. The harvest season is from September to October every year. The large-scale listing of chili may cause the price to fall, but there are exceptions. From June to August every year, the price of yidu dry chili will have a short-term rise.
- Quality Factors
Yidu dry chili is mainly graded according to its color and moisture content. The price of yidu dry chili with natural red color and low moisture content is relatively high, while the price of yidu dry chili with high proportion of yellow color is lower.
- Customized packaging
Vacuum packaging or retail packaging is usually more expensive, but the product quality is better and the flavor is better preserved.
- Holiday price fluctuations
The catering industry in food capitals such as Kuala Lumpur and Penang is in high demand. During festive seasons such as the Chinese New Year, retail prices may temporarily increase by 5-10%.
