Blueberry Prices at Bronisze Fall to €4.6–6.4/kg Amid Peak Harvest

Wholesale prices for Polish blueberries at the Bronisze market on 17 July 2026 ranged from €4.6 to €6.4/kg (20–28 PLN/kg), reflecting high availability during the peak of the domestic harvest.

Polish blueberry supply is currently high, with the main harvest in full swing and large-scale producers such as Legsad in Lower Silesia operating over 140 hectares of berry crops, the majority under tunnel cultivation. The use of protective tunnels allows for better control of growing conditions and extended harvest periods, increasing the volume and quality of fruit offered to the market.

At the Bronisze wholesale market near Warsaw on 17 July 2026, blueberries were quoted at €4.6–6.4/kg (20–28 PLN/kg). This price range is indicative of strong supply meeting stable demand, as domestic production peaks and large quantities are available for both local trade and potential export.

Recent high temperatures, with recorded peaks above 45°C in some production regions, have posed a challenge for growers, especially those cultivating under tunnels. To mitigate heat stress and sun damage to fruit and foliage, some producers have implemented shading techniques and light-diffusing preparations on tunnel covers, which has helped maintain fruit quality and yields.

The modern infrastructure at leading farms, including on-site sorting, packing, and logistics facilities, supports efficient distribution and enhances the ability of Polish producers to supply retailers and exporters with high-quality fruit. The scale of operations in regions like Lower Silesia underscores the growing significance of the blueberry sector within the Polish fruit industry.

Demand for fresh blueberries remains stable, with active trade at wholesale markets and continued interest from retail and processing sectors. The combination of advanced cultivation methods and favourable logistics is supporting sustained supply to the domestic market during the July peak.
