Wholesale strawberry prices on the European market

Strawberries are the most popular berry fruit in Europe, with enormous consumer demand throughout the year. Spain is the largest supplier during winter and spring, while Poland, Germany, and the Netherlands dominate the summer season with open-field and greenhouse production. 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, Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium.

What types of strawberries do we track?

For precise market analysis, we divide quotations into several important segments relevant to producers and traders:

• Fresh strawberries: premium class I fruit for retail, graded by size and packed in punnets or trays
• Industrial strawberries: fruit destined for freezing, jam production, and juice processing — Poland is Europe's largest producer in this segment
• Strawberries by growing method: open-field, tunnel, and substrate (tabletop) production create distinct quality tiers and pricing windows

Factors influencing strawberry prices

Strawberry prices are driven by seasonal production volumes across Europe, weather conditions affecting yield and quality, the overlap between Spanish imports and domestic harvests, labour availability during peak picking periods, and frozen stock levels influencing processing demand. The expansion of year-round greenhouse production continues to reshape market dynamics. Using price charts on Fresh-market.info, wholesale buyers and growers can track historical trends and forecast price changes to secure the most favorable deals.
