Rising Supply of Polish Carrots at Bronisze as Harvest Expands

Supply of domestic carrots is increasing at Polish wholesale markets, with the full harvest season underway. Prices for carrots remain stable amid growing availability.

At the Bronisze wholesale market near Warsaw, the supply of Polish carrots has increased as the domestic harvest enters its main phase in mid-July 2026. Traders are reporting more young field-grown carrots arriving on the market, alongside other root vegetables such as beets and onions.

Wholesale prices for carrots at Bronisze in mid-July 2026 are stable, with volumes increasing daily due to the progressing harvest. No significant price spikes or shortages for carrots have been reported, in contrast with other root crops such as celeriac, which saw a sudden shortage and sharp price rise to €1.2–1.4/kg (5–6 PLN/kg).

Major supermarket chains in Poland, including Lidl, continue to cooperate with domestic carrot producers. Past initiatives have included the sale of "imperfect" carrots—those with visual defects but full nutritional value—at reduced prices to support growers and reduce food waste. While this season's focus is on tomatoes, similar programs have previously included carrots and other vegetables.

Demand for fresh carrots remains steady, supported by supermarket and wholesale buyers as the summer harvest reaches its peak. Weather conditions in early July have favored carrot ripening and quality, aiding the ongoing harvest.

The increasing presence of Polish carrots on the market comes alongside a general rise in young root vegetable supply, with no reported import pressure or export disruptions for carrots in this period.
