Raspberries Price Trend for Q1 of 2025

During the first quarter of 2025, European raspberry prices experienced notable fluctuations due to several contributing factors. Adverse weather conditions in Spain persisted longer than anticipated, significantly impacting raspberry production.

The combination of below-average temperatures and reduced profitability in raspberry farming further limited cultivation, adding pressure to an already constrained market.

Meanwhile, raspberry production in Poland increased. The country expanded its cultivation, particularly through undercover growing techniques, ensuring a stable supply. Poland’s raspberry processing sector, one of the largest globally, played a crucial role in meeting the demand for frozen raspberries, purées, and juices, thereby alleviating some of the pressure on the fresh fruit market. At the same time, raspberry production in the Netherlands faced labor shortages, prompting many Dutch firms to source raspberries from Poland instead. As Poland is also the leading producer of raspberry concentrate, demand for Polish raspberries continued to rise throughout the quarter, further driving up prices.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the raspberry price curve is likely to continue the upward trend amid the supply shortages of both dried and fresh fruit in the upcoming months.
 

Raspberries Price Trend for the Second Half of 2024

Global raspberry prices in the second half of 2024 were influenced by multiple factors, including production challenges, supply disruptions, and geopolitical instability. The European markets experienced strong demand for frozen raspberries, with Ukraine, Serbia, and Poland remaining the primary suppliers during this period. These regions, along with other raspberry-producing countries, faced adverse weather conditions, such as heat waves, which reduced yields and constrained supply amid high demand. As a result, prices in the European market increased. However, with the arrival of the new harvest from Ukraine, prices eventually stabilized.

In the United States, demand for Mexican frozen raspberries rose as the California season came to an end. The situation was further complicated by a decline in production. Compared to the previous year, Mexico’s raspberry production decreased by 10 to 12 percent. This reduction led to higher prices, which later stabilized as Mexican production recovered in the fall and winter months.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the prices of raspberries are expected to remain under pressure in the coming months. As the producers and traders navigate the current market dynamics, the adjustments are being made to ensure a steady supply of the commodity to meet market needs.
 

Raspberries Price Trend for the First Half of 2024

The prices showed a significant increase, but mostly, the prices varied regionally. In the United States, the prices this year were approximately double the prices of last year. Limited supply was the main cause of such a dramatic increase in prices, which was influenced by bad weather conditions in Mexico and low production in California. Shorter volumes and growing demand kept the prices fluctuating towards the higher end.

The European market also witnessed elevated commodity prices. Spain and France witnessed a decrease in market volume. In contrast, Germany witnessed a stable supply of raspberries due to the use of new cultivation techniques that allowed harvests following the month of May as well. The prices directly influenced the prices and manufacturing costs of downstream industries such as raspberry concentrates and raspberry puree products.

Overall, the price of raspberries showed an upward trend mainly due to a supply crunch influenced by climatic factors, increased production costs, and competition from overseas producers. A gradual shift in the pricing dynamics is expected as the new harvested crop will hit the markets likely to exert a downward pressure on the prices.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the prices of raspberries can show a fluctuating trend with a marginal decline in prices in short term as the supply will increase after the newly harvested crop hits the markets.
 

Raspberries Price Trend for the Second Half of 2023

Raspberry prices were observed to be fluctuating throughout the said period of the last six months of 2023. Quarter three saw a supply surge as the new harvests came in. Prices in the USA fell by almost more than 20% from July to August.

Unpleasant weather conditions in Mexico led to the region seeing a higher fruit quality along with some loss in crop yield. However, with decreased demand the raspberry market started attaining sufficiency in supplies. Some occasional and marginal ups in the price graph were noticed in the fourth quarter. However, the overall market sentiments still remained muted. A tepid price trajectory was witnessed during the said time period.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, Raspberry prices are likely to continue fluctuating in the coming months; the current supply and demand dynamics suggest a moderate performance.
 

Raspberries Price Trend for the First Half of 2023

Raspberry prices continued their downhill journey in the first half of 2023 as well. As the Ukrainian supplies substantially depleted the positive market sentiments, an influx from other producing countries also contributed towards lowering the Raspberries prices further.

Along with excess supplies, a dip in consumer demands also played a significant role in determining the Raspberry market trend. Due to the high global inflation, consumer behavior became more necessity-centric, and Raspberries took a back seat.

In fear of further losing the market value, suppliers who were initially hoarding the bulk quantities released them at a discounted rate in the market. This disturbed the supply-demand dynamics badly as the market got heavily oversupplied in the face of declined demands. Overall, bearish market sentiments were observed.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the price trend for Raspberries are expected to fluctuate in the upcoming months as the market will try to strive for some normalization owing to the current volatilities in the pricing fundamentals.
 

Raspberries Price Trend for the Second Half of 2022

Raspberries prices fluctuated in the European market throughout the second half of 2022. With the heavy inclination in Raspberry prices in the first half of 2022, farmers grew even more Raspberries, increasing the yields to procure more profits.

So, the market had an apparent stable start in June’22, but the sudden availability of high-quality Ukrainian Raspberry supplies in the international market changed the price dynamics completely. Situations were very uncertain in Ukraine because of the Russian attacks, so the suppliers sold their produce at even lower prices to vacate inventories as quickly as possible.

Other European suppliers, which were expecting higher profits, held on to the product for some time, but the market didn’t rise according to their hopes and kept on declining throughout the latter half of 2022. Overall, dull market sentiments were observed.

Analyst insight

According to Procurement Resource, the price trend for Raspberry are expected to fall further given the increased supply as the Ukrainian exports are getting continuous access to the market.

Total fruit prices increased by 10.2%, with raspberry prices increasing by the most (4.1 %) among its competitors.

Producers were able to set higher prices for raspberries at the start of the season owing to the berry's limited supply on the market, since cold and rainy weather hampered the ripening of raspberries on Polish fields. Simultaneously, demand in this area was fairly high, which contributed to the segment's high costs.

In Catalonia, the wholesale price of raspberries was down 20.89% year on year. Spain began the year with bad weather conditions, which resulted in a reduction in output and, consequently, high wholesale prices.
