Tridge summary

Despite ongoing terrorist attacks and the Russian-North Korean invasion, Ukraine is rapidly increasing its frozen raspberry exports, catching up to leaders Serbia and Poland. In the first three months of the 2024/25 season, exports hit a record high of over 28 thousand tons, a 36% increase from the previous year and a 45% increase from 2022. This growth is notable as it comes amidst reports of decreased raspberry harvests. Ukraine is expanding its export markets, with Germany and France becoming major destinations, and has also started exporting to the USA and Canada. Even Poland, heavily dependent on Ukrainian raspberries, is seeing a decrease in its share of Ukraine's total exports.

According to EastFruit analysts, Ukraine in the 2024/25 season continues to actively catch up with the world leaders in frozen raspberry exports, which remain Serbia and Poland. This is happening despite the Russian-North Korean invasion of Ukraine and the daily terrorist attacks of the aggressors on the country's civilian infrastructure, including the energy sector. However, Poland, in order to maintain its leading position, is increasingly dependent on re-exports of products, mainly of Ukrainian origin.
