Raspberries wholesale price — $36.00 / case of 12
Supplier ref. 02681 · quoted October 16, 2026
Raspberries are quoted at $36.00 / 12CT 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 12CT 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 12CT 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. Raspberries are quoted in four pack sizes this week, from $7.00 for the 1CT to $36.00 for the 12CT. 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 Raspberries
Berries move week to week more than most of the fruit list does, and the reason is structural. They are quoted by the flat of clamshells, they hold for days rather than weeks, and our reference data shows supply arriving from a long list of origins — California and Mexico across the whole year, with Peru, Chile, Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, New Jersey and the Pacific Northwest each covering part of it. Every changeover between those origins is an opportunity for the price to move, which is why the twelve-month range on the chart tells a buyer more here than today's number does.
Buying notes
Berries are quoted as a full flat, a half flat and a single clamshell, and the smaller formats consistently carry a premium per container. Order against a service date rather than a delivery date — shelf life is the binding constraint, and a cheap flat you cannot turn is not cheap.
