Firm avocado wholesale price — $46.00 / 48CT case

Supplier ref. 02610 · quoted September 7, 2026

Firm avocado is quoted at $46.00 / 48CT 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 48CT 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 48CT 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. Firm avocado is quoted in four pack sizes this week, from $16.00 for the 4EA to $46.00 for the 48CT. 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 Firm avocado

Avocados are quoted on two axes at once and both belong in the price: the count size — how many fruit fill the carton — and the ripeness stage the wholesaler is selling. Firm fruit is the buy for a kitchen with a few days of runway; pre-conditioned and ripe fruit is the buy for a kitchen serving tomorrow, and it costs what the conditioning costs. Our reference data documents continuous Mexican supply backed by the Dominican Republic, with Florida and California appearing in the back half of the year.

Buying notes

The same fruit is quoted across several counts plus a small retail-size pack; a lower count means bigger fruit, so match the count to the plate before comparing prices, since the cost per avocado falls steeply as the count rises. Ripe fruit has almost no storage life, so buy it only against service you have already sold.
