Wholesale melon prices on the European market
Melons are a staple summer fruit across Europe, with demand peaking from May to September. Spain, Italy, and Brazil are leading suppliers, while Central American and North African origins extend availability throughout the year. On the Fresh-market.info portal, we publish daily wholesale prices and market reports from major exchanges and wholesale markets in Poland (including Bronisze, Wroclaw, Poznan), as well as key EU countries — Spain, Italy, France, and the Netherlands.
What types of melons do we track?
For precise market analysis, we divide quotations into several important segments relevant to producers and traders:
- Cantaloupe melons: the most popular variety in European retail, with orange flesh, netted skin, and strong aroma
- Honeydew melons: smooth-skinned green or yellow melons prized for their sweetness and long shelf life
- Galia and Charentais: premium melon varieties favoured by discerning consumers and upscale retailers across Western Europe
Factors influencing melon prices
Melon prices depend on seasonal production volumes in Spain and Italy, weather conditions during the growing season, transport costs for overseas imports, and consumer demand tied to summer temperatures. Early or late harvests can shift pricing dynamics significantly. Using price charts on Fresh-market.info, wholesale buyers and farmers can track historical trends and forecast price changes to secure the most favorable deals.
