Why Frozen raspberries is moving
High confidenceThe current price for frozen raspberries stands at $44.00 per case, reflecting a substantial 42.1% decrease over the past three months. This significant price correction is largely attributable to an anticipated increase in raspberry harvest from Mexico, a key supplier to the U.S. market, with projections indicating a 7% jump in their 2026 output, and improved supplies expected to cross into the U.S.. Additionally, a robust 2025 frozen raspberry crop in Washington, which accounts for 90% of U.S. production, likely contributed to higher inventory levels entering the current season. Globally, raspberry production has been expanding at a faster rate than consumption, leading to an oversupply of processing berries that can trigger sharp price declines, further contributing to the current market softness.
- increased Mexican supply
- strong US domestic harvest
- global oversupply

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.
