Tridge summary

The Polish wholesale market has seen the start of the local greenhouse tomato season, but it has been delayed by almost a month compared to last year, with the first batches of red tomatoes going on sale last week at 25 zł/kg ($5.74/kg). The cost of greenhouse tomatoes has decreased by 13% on average since the start of the season, but are still 38% more expensive than last year due to increased production costs and fuel access issues. This has led to a delay in the production season and a limited supply of local tomatoes, while imported tomatoes remain expensive due to supply issues in Spain, Turkey, and Morocco.
