They will replace those from Chile whose season on the subcontinent ended on a high note in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supplies will increase because Delhi also orders from other sources such as New Zealand for particularly the premium Hayward kiwi variety.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, &nbsp;the Mediterranean sources of Italy and Greece have also supplied Hayward in small quantities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iran has the supply advantage, however, because of strategic supply timings.
