The reason must be that people are prepared to pay a premium price for local
stuff.
Here in Spain, most fruits and vegetables are locally grown, whether bought in
the supermarket or at the market. Certain things may not be available year
round, or come from the southern hemisphere (and are then expensive), but
almost everything grows here.
Thanks for looking!
