Kiwi wholesale price — $28.00 / 1-LYR case
Supplier ref. 03169 · quoted September 7, 2026
Kiwi is quoted at $28.00 / 1-LYR 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 1-LYR 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 1-LYR 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. Kiwi is quoted in two pack sizes this week, from $6.00 for the 3EA to $28.00 for the 1-LYR. 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 Kiwi
Kiwi sits in the tropical group on this catalog, but our reference data labels it correctly: it is a temperate fruit that reaches New York year-round through a hemisphere switch, with New Zealand and Chile covering the middle and back of the year and Greece, Italy and California covering the rest. It is quoted as a single-layer tray rather than by weight, so the count in that tray is the specification. Kiwi arrives firm and holds well in cold storage, which makes it one of the steadier fruit buys on the list.
Buying notes
The layer tray is the reference pack, so compare tray against tray and check the count in it — the tray size is fixed and the fruit size is not. A small piece pack is also quoted for kitchens using kiwi as a garnish rather than a component.
