Supply chain problems and inflation are affecting virtually
every commodity at every level. Fresh produce, fruit and vegetable
prices have risen at different rates, due to a combination of
factors, including:
Higher input costs such as energy, packaging, and
fertilisers
Labour shortages
Shipping issues due to surging freight costs and delays
Strong consumer demand of high-quality of food
Changing consumer buying practices such as online purchase and
home delivery
The global price landscape of fresh fruit and vegetables is more
volatile than ever, placing even more pressure on food retailers
and procurement teams. We do not anticipate a return to "normal"
seasonal patterns until 2023.
Our new white paper, Analysis: Fresh Fruit and Vegetable
Prices Inflation, contains data and analysis that helps sheds
light on the pricing outlook for fresh produce, along with our
expectations for the future. It looks at the ongoing cost and
inflation picture for selected fresh fruit and vegetable
categories: apples, bananas, oranges, lettuce, and potatoes.
