Wholesale chicory prices on the European market
Chicory is a leafy vegetable with a distinctive slightly bitter taste, widely consumed in Western Europe and gaining popularity in new markets. 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 — Belgium, France, the Netherlands, and Italy.
What types of chicory do we track?
For precise market analysis, we divide quotations into several important segments relevant to producers and traders:
- Radicchio (red chicory): an Italian speciality variety with vibrant colour, popular in salads and grilled dishes
- Sugarloaf chicory: a mild-flavoured heading variety used in fresh salad mixes across Central Europe
- Root chicory: grown for industrial use as a coffee substitute and source of inulin fibre
Factors influencing chicory prices
Chicory prices are affected by growing conditions, labour-intensive forcing and blanching processes, import flows from Belgium and France, and consumer demand trends for bitter salad leaves. 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.
