Finger limes are quoted at $29.00 / 1EA 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 1EA 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 1EA 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.

About Finger limes
Citrus is a deep line on this catalog and one where the pack format matters more than the fruit's name. Lemons, limes, oranges and grapefruit are all quoted by count size, so a carton of large fruit and a carton of small fruit weigh about the same and hold very different numbers — they are not comparable quotes even though both are "a case". Our reference data documents twelve-month supply built on a domestic winter and spring deal out of California, Arizona and Florida, with Southern Hemisphere and Mediterranean fruit taking over in summer and fall. The specialty lines — Meyer lemons, Cara Cara and Seville oranges, kumquat, finger limes — run on far thinner supply than the commodity sizes and behave differently.
Buying notes
Always quote the count: the wholesaler lists several sizes of the same lemon or lime at once, and the spread between them is a size gap, not a quality gap — the highest counts are the lowest cost per fruit. If your prep can absorb smaller fruit, that spread is where the saving sits.
