The outlet exports pine nuts to other countries.
The “Nayab Dry Fruit” shop is Peshawar’s largest dry fruit outlet.
With the onset of winter season, demand for dry fruits has increased.
We all eat dry fruits, but we do not know that whether these are produced in Pakistan or imported from other countries. Most of dry fruits are imported from neighbouring Afghanistan.
This year, the prices of pine nuts have recorded a big decrease. Last year, the price of one kilogram of the nut was Rs9,000, which has now decreased to Rs4000 per kilogram.
