High Wholesale Prices for Green Beans at Bronisze Amid Limited Supply

Wholesale prices for green beans remain elevated at the Bronisze market, with limited supply and labor-intensive harvest driving rates.

Green beans (fasolka szparagowa) are maintaining high wholesale prices at the Bronisze market at the end of July 2026. Prices currently stand at €2.3–3.2/kg (10.00–14.00 PLN/kg) in wholesale trade, reflecting reduced supply and the labor-intensive nature of harvesting this crop.

The supply of green beans is described as lower than usual. This, combined with the cost and effort of manual picking, has contributed to the sustained high price levels. No significant imports of green beans are reported at Bronisze, as imported vegetables are generally scarce on the market during this period.

Demand for green beans remains stable, with buyers continuing to purchase despite the relatively high prices. There is no indication of increased export activity for this product, in contrast to other vegetables such as red peppers.

Recent weather has been sunny and warm, accelerating the ripening of many vegetables. However, this has not significantly increased the availability of green beans, unlike other crops such as field cucumbers, which have seen a notable rise in supply and a corresponding drop in prices.

Trading activity at Bronisze is currently limited to Sundays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays due to the summer slowdown, affecting the overall volume of green bean transactions.
