A QT sentence - A candy wholesaler needs

[ghag.kamlesh]

Hello,

I came across this sentence in one of the CAT exam. This sentence is a part of QT problem, and not actually in sentence correction section.

I am not able to understand the construction of this sentence. Actually, to point out the word - nearing - is somewhat not convincing me. If anyone can share his or her expertise in SC, then it would be great.

A candy wholesaler needs to quickly sell some candy bars that are nearing their expiration date, so he reduced the price of the candy bars.

Thanks in advance.
