Cherry tomato wholesale price — $24.00 / 12CT case

Supplier ref. 04166 · quoted September 7, 2026

Cherry tomato is quoted at $24.00 / 12CT case in the week of September 7, 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 12CT 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 12CT 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. Cherry tomato is quoted in five pack sizes this week, from $6.00 for the 1CT to $24.00 for the 12CT. 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 Cherry tomato

Cherry tomatoes are a greenhouse item first: Mexican and Canadian glass supplies New York continuously, with Florida, California and East Coast field crop taking share seasonally and Dominican and Guatemalan fruit appearing in winter and spring. Because the base supply is protected, the floor is steadier than for field tomatoes — but light, heat and freight still move it, and the medley and toybox packs price on a different logic than plain red, since they are assembled from several varieties at once. This is a line a kitchen reorders every week, so the running cost matters more than any single quote.

Buying notes

The supplier quotes the red flat alongside medley and toybox packs and down to a single container, so check which pack a price belongs to before comparing. Greenhouse supply keeps the line available in every month, which means there is no season to wait for — the range on this page is the whole story.
