Warsaw region: onion prices stable ahead of Bronisze market closure

Wholesale onion prices in the Warsaw region remained stable on 12 August 2026, with the Bronisze market set for a brief closure due to the August holiday. Trade activity was focused on completing deliveries ahead of the disruption.

White onion at the Bronisze wholesale market on 12 August 2026 was quoted at €0.35–0.47/kg (1.5–2 PLN/kg). White sweet and garlic-type onions traded at €0.93–1.39/kg (4–6 PLN/kg), while young white onions were priced at €0.81–1.16/kg (3.5–5 PLN/kg). Red onion prices ranged from €0.47 to €1.16/kg (2–5 PLN/kg). Onions with green tops (bunches) were available at €0.35–0.47 per bunch (1.5–2 PLN/pęczek).

Trading volume at Bronisze was influenced by the upcoming closure of the wholesale market from 14 August, 12:00 until 15 August, 20:00, due to the public holiday. Sellers and buyers were accelerating transactions and adjusting delivery schedules to ensure supply continuity during the market's downtime.

Supply of domestic onions was steady, with the main harvest period ongoing in major producing regions. No disruptions to harvest or quality were reported in the current period, and availability at wholesale markets remained sufficient for buyer demand.

Demand from wholesalers and retailers was typical for the season, with increased activity observed ahead of the market closure. No significant weather events affecting onion harvest or logistics were reported in Poland as of mid-August.

Further short-term interruptions to trade at Bronisze are scheduled for late October, November, December, and at the turn of the year, affecting planning for both producers and buyers of onions and other vegetables.
