  • The price of Damak King durian remains stable at RM50 per kilogram, despite a market drop for other varieties.
  • This premium durian, grown in Kampung Damak and Kampung Ulu, maintains its high market value.
  • The abundance of other durian types, including Musang King, has not affected Damak King's premium pricing.

In Jerantut, Malaysia, the Damak King durian variety is defying market trends, holding firm at RM50 per kilogram. This price point remains exceptionally high even as other local durians, including the popular Musang King, have seen significant price drops this season.

The Damak King durian, cultivated in the villages of Kampung Damak and Kampung Ulu, has established itself as a premium offering. Its consistent pricing indicates strong demand and a dedicated market segment willing to pay for its perceived quality, distinguishing it from the more common varieties now flooding the market.

The current season's abundance of Musang King and other premium local durians (DPK) has failed to undermine the Damak King's market position. This resilience suggests that Damak King possesses unique attributes or a loyal customer base that insulates it from the typical price fluctuations seen with other durian types.
