Why Frozen raspberries is moving

High confidence

The current price of frozen raspberries stands at $44.00 per case, reflecting a substantial 42.1% decrease over the past three months. This significant price adjustment is primarily attributed to a global surge in raspberry production during the 2025-2026 period, which has resulted in record-high volumes entering the market. Mexico, a key origin currently shipping, is forecasting a 7% increase in raspberry production for 2026, with a large portion directed towards export, and fresh raspberries from Mexico are actively arriving in stores this October. Despite some production challenges in regions like Serbia due to adverse weather, other major suppliers such as Chile are reporting solid production and increasing export activity for IQF frozen raspberries, further contributing to the ample global supply. This overall increase in available product has outpaced consumption growth, creating a buyer's market.

About Frozen raspberries

Frozen red fruit is the IQF berry line — strawberry, raspberry, blueberry — sold to New York kitchens that need berries with no shelf-life clock and no seasonal gap. Our reference data records a wide import base for these berries, and that is precisely the point: a packer can source the same specification from several countries, which is why a frozen berry does not follow the fresh berry market week for week. What moves the price is the packer's cost and the size of the case, not the harvest.

Buying notes

IQF cases are quoted on net weight and the same berry can come in more than one case size, so check which one you are being quoted before comparing. These prices move in steps when a new pack arrives rather than week to week, so a level that has held for months is not in itself a reason to wait.
