I'm working for companies that trade fruits and vegetables in large scale (mostly to supermarket chains). Time is everything here. There is stuff that is only fresh for a very limited amount of time like strawberries, raspberries, avocados, apricots, asparagus, ... There is stuff that only grows in southern Europe because of the weather condition and then is transported through Europe to the customers. Just a one day delay (or uncertainties in when the goods actually arrive) causes problems here, so the whole process is totally optimized. And yes, you might be able to produce all these fruits and vegetables locally as well in any season of the year when using green houses - but this will be more expensive to produce so it is more expensive for the customers. And even then there is the problem of labour shortage since the farmers don't find enough domestic workers.
