Xiluo, also written Hsilo, is a vegetable assembly and distribution market in Yunlin County. It deals in physical consignments rather than futures contracts. The township description identifies approximately four hectares of main trading space and the development of the present complex during the 1990s. A supplier can use the venue to contact buyers assembling goods for onward distribution, while a purchaser can investigate several sources of supply within one market.
Multiplying it automatically by the number of days in a year would be inappropriate. Variable arrivals, closures and seasonality could turn that calculation into a seemingly precise annual statistic with no evidential basis.
The published description identifies negotiated prices, a management charge of 3% of transaction value, separate supplier and producer areas, and leafy, root, highland and cucurbit vegetables. Confirm the rate before sending a load because the description is not a dated service offer. The range of origins also makes it useful to ask where a lot was harvested and how it is identified, instead of assuming that everything traded comes from the immediate neighbourhood. Goods sharing a crop name may have different growing conditions, maturity and transport histories.
A buyer filling a vehicle from several sellers should agree the loading sequence and package identification in advance. For lightweight leafy vegetables, volume, harvest timing and protection from dehydration matter; for roots, soil content and actual product weight may be more important. A seller should ask about the receiving area, separation of grades and the handling of any unsold balance. No single minimum consignment applicable to all participants was verified. Confirming each seller's terms is therefore more useful than relying on a general assumption about wholesale access.
The official township site directs quotation enquiries to AMIS. Select a particular day and variety or category before comparing a reference price with the offered consignment. Trading-closure calendars are published separately. A carrier should plan arrival using the current calendar and the operator's confirmation, not merely general opening-hour information. A reported produce price does not automatically cover assembling several lots, onward freight or returnable packaging; record those elements separately when evaluating a purchase.
