Supplier ref. 03130 · quoted October 5, 2026
Seedless red grapes are quoted at $36.00 / 18LB case in the week of October 5, 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 18LB 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 seedless red grapes is invoiced as 18LB, the weight the supplier states on the pack. Seedless red grapes are quoted in two pack sizes this week, from $14.00 for the 2LB to $36.00 for the 18LB. 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 Seedless red grapes
Table grapes are one of the clearest import-handoff stories on the New York market: California carries the trade from summer through about the turn of the year, then Peru and Chile take over for winter and spring, with Italian fruit appearing occasionally in the fall. Every handoff is a price event, because an incoming region prices against its own arrivals rather than against the outgoing deal. Red seedless is the volume color — banquet fruit, breakfast service, display work — and it is quoted separately from white because it is a separate set of varieties.
Buying notes
The working format is an eighteen-pound case, with a two-pound bunch quoted for small users. The weeks around an origin changeover, late in the California deal and again as South American fruit lands, are where the case price tends to be least settled.
