Galia melons wholesale price — $39.00 / case of 5–7
Supplier ref. 03321 · quoted October 16, 2026
Galia melons are quoted at $39.00 / 5-7ct case in the week of October 12, 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 5-7ct 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 5-7ct 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 Galia melons
Melons are quoted by the count in the case, and that count is the first thing to read on a melon price: a case holding a few large melons and a case holding many smaller ones are both "a case" and cost very different amounts per fruit. Our reference data separates two supply pictures here. Cantaloupe and honeydew are documented as twelve-month items moving from Central America in winter to California and Arizona in summer; Galia, Hami and Canary appear only as isolated observations with no established calendar, so their supply cannot be assumed. Melons are also among the fruits the wholesaler will break down to the each, which tells you the trade expects kitchens to buy them in small numbers.
Buying notes
Read the count size first — on cantaloupe and honeydew several counts plus singles are quoted, and the count is what separates them. Treat a quote on Galia, Hami or Canary as a spot price rather than a standing one, because the reference data records no reliable calendar for them.
