Very expensive raspberries on the Polish market

2021-08-11 11:33
This year's course of the dessert raspberry trade season in Poland differs from what we have seen in previous years. At least when it comes to its second part. At the beginning, until the end of the first week of July, we saw a typical drop in wholesale prices for this phase. The market in this period is still immature and there are problems in finding buyers when there is more supply. This can be seen in the graph below.
 
 
 
Prices have dropped to an average of 10.00 PLN/kg, which is the level at which industrial raspberry purchase started. Then the fresh market saw a significant price rebound and now raspberry prices are at record highs. This is the result of very high demand, especially from the processing industry, which is pulling a lot of fruit from the market.
 
In particular, the weather this year has caused significant quality problems with these delicate fruits and a smaller percentage of them is going to the fresh market. Consequently, we have stable purchase prices for processing and they are extremely undifferentiated. They are between 10.00 and 13.50 PLN/kg. On the other hand, dessert raspberries have increased in price since 5 July by as much as 160% (a year ago in the same period the increase was only 8%) and now have large wholesale prices in the range of 20.00-32.00 zł/kg.
