Availability of Domestic Fresh Table Grapes in Europe Is Decreasing and Being Replaced by Imported Grapes

In W47, the supply of white seedless grapes on the European market was entirely replaced by imports, with the last batches of EU grapes selling for a good price. The demand for imported grapes remains steady in the European market, with prices ranging from USD 18.69-20.77/5kg box (10x500g box) for the Arra 15, Sugar Crisp, and Sweet Globe varieties. The imported grapes available at the market are mostly from Brazil, with a very limited presence from Peru.

Red seedless grapes are almost completely out of stock, with prices for Brazilian origin at USD 20.77/5kg box. Red seedless grapes from Italy, Greece, and Turkey are nearing the end of the season, with prices offered from USD 15.58 to 16.61/5kg box. The first arrivals of red seeded grapes from Peru, the Red Globe variety, are expected in W48, with market prices of around USD 20.77/8.2 kg box.
