Supplier ref. 02580 · quoted October 5, 2026
Artichoke is quoted at $78.00 / 45-75CT case in the week of October 5, 2026. That is the lowest wholesale quote we recorded that week from the single New York distributor we track — not a market average, and not an official terminal quotation. The quote covers one 45-75CT case, the unit the supplier invoices; we never divide it by a weight to publish a price per pound.

What is in the case
The supplier states no weight for the 45-75CT pack, so we quote it as a pack and publish no price per pound for it. That is a limit of the source, and the reason our figure stays comparable from one week to the next: a per-pound price built on an assumed case weight moves whenever the assumption does. Artichoke is quoted in seven pack sizes this week, from $49.00 for the 36CT to $78.00 for the 100-120CT. The quotes are not comparable per pound — the supplier does not publish a weight for every pack — so we list them side by side rather than ranking them.

About Artichoke
Artichokes on the New York market are effectively a single-origin crop: California, all year, with no second region documented to absorb a bad stretch. That makes this one of the few produce lines where one growing district sets the price outright, and it is why artichoke quotes can hold flat for months and then move as a block. They are sold by count and by size, from large loose fruit down to small loose, and the count is the recipe — whole service, stuffed preparations and trimmed hearts are not the same purchase. The heaviest supply falls in spring.
Buying notes
The lead reference is a loose count case for which the supplier publishes no guaranteed weight, so read this page by the case and by the count, never by the pound. With formats running from a dozen up to a large loose pack, matching the count to the plate is the biggest lever a buyer has here.
