Green peppers wholesale price — $18.00 / 25LB case
Supplier ref. 03708 · quoted September 7, 2026
Green peppers are quoted at $18.00 / 25LB 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 25LB case, the unit the supplier invoices; we never divide it by a weight to publish a price per pound.

What is in the case
One case of green peppers is invoiced as 25LB, the weight the supplier states on the pack. Green peppers are quoted in five pack sizes this week, from $12.00 for the 5LB to $18.00 for the 10LB. 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 Green peppers
Green bell peppers swing more than most everyday vegetables, and the reason is structural. The crop walks from Florida and Mexico in winter to Georgia, the Carolinas, New Jersey, Ontario glass and local Northeast fields in summer and fall, and each of those handoffs is exposed to a single weather event with no other region running at scale to absorb it. A freeze in Florida or a wet harvest in the Southeast does not average out — it lands on next week's quote. Peppers are also sold both by the bushel and by the box, so a kitchen with real volume has room to move on format.
Buying notes
The standing formats are the bushel in medium and large plus a smaller box, with five-pound and six-count cases for low-volume users. Read this page against its twelve-month range rather than against last week: the swing across a year on green peppers is wide enough that one week tells you very little.
