The Wimbledon Organizing Committee has special requirements for strawberries. The variety must be Elsanta. This kind of strawberry fruit is cone-shaped, large, brightly colored, and sweet in taste. Moreover, only strawberries with a diameter of 25 mm to 40 mm can be screened and entered into the All England Tennis Club, and sold together with frozen cream in white paper shallow bowls for 2 pounds per bowl of 10 strawberries.

You have reason to think it is expensive, but if you know how many processes Elsanta strawberries go through before entering the SW area of ??London (the postal code where Wimbledon is located), you will pay for it obediently. . In order to ensure the freshness of the strawberries, workers start picking them at 5 o'clock every morning, and then transport them by truck from Kent to Wimbledon via the A3 highway. After the car bomb incident in London, vehicles entering and exiting the city were subject to strict inspections, and the strawberry truck was not spared. So in order to arrive in time, the daily strawberry picking time was advanced.

In addition to strawberries and ice cream, anything related to the event is very popular. Every year, Wimbledon sells more than 10,000 commemorative towels, more than 7,000 cans of tennis-shaped chocolates, 5,000 commemorative water bottles, 4,000 specially made giant tennis toys, 350,000 bottles of mineral water, 60,000 pints of wine and 15,000 bottles of champagne.
