             The best time to market the peaches is at the start of the harvest time to shortly after harvest has concluded (Crassweller et al. n.d.).  When the product is being sold, to ensure the customers return and continue to purchase the product, one must be sure the product being supplied is of the best quality (Crassweller et al. n.d.).

       

           One very important step that needs to be taken when marketing peaches it to make sure the people of Nepal know how nutritionally beneficial they are.  Kalimati Fruits and Vegetable Market is a wholesale market in Nepal where many people sell their product and many consumers come to shop.  This is where many farmers go to market their agricultural produce, especially, vegetables and fruits in the Kathmandu valley.  Kalimati Fruits and Vegetable Wholesale Market was set up by the Department of Food and Agriculture Marketing Services (GOV of Nepal, n.d.).  So this location would be an excellent location to sell the peaches grown in the orchard.  27 percent of the fruits and vegetables that are sold in markets in Nepal are imported from India (Fresh Plaza, 2015).  With Nepal being a very agriculture based society more of the food sold and eaten there should be locally grown which would not only cut costs of imports but also increase the farmer’s livelihoods.
