Florida fruit and vegetable vendors are experiencing significant price increases due to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on imported produce, particularly from Mexico. As vendors like Luis Saldana face rising costs and reduced profit margins, prices on items such as mangoes, tomatoes, and avocados have skyrocketed. While local farms are helping maintain some affordability, the overall trend suggests groceries will continue to become pricier, posing challenges for both vendors and consumers alike.
