Supplier ref. 02710 · quoted September 7, 2026
String green beans are quoted at $28.00 / 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 string green beans is invoiced as 25LB, the weight the supplier states on the pack. String green beans are quoted in two pack sizes this week, from $12.00 for the 5LB to $28.00 for the 25LB. 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 String green beans
The bean heading is mostly round green beans and haricots verts, with fava, Chinese long bean, sea bean and fresh garbanzo as intermittent specialties. Green beans are hand-picked, and our reference has Guatemala and Florida carrying the cold months while Georgia, the Carolinas, Ohio, Delaware, New Jersey and New York State cover the local run, so the same line alternates between a long-haul import and a truck from a nearby field over the course of a year. Fava and Chinese long bean are not year-round items and drop off the offering entirely outside their window.
Buying notes
Round green and wax beans move in bushel-weight twenty-five pound cases, haricots verts in five pound because they are a finer and slower pick, and the specialties by the pound. Green and wax beans are also carried in ten and five pound packs, which matters on an item that loses snap this fast.
