Sources: 9. Developments: 2. The Polish raspberry market is facing challenges related to import competition and domestic production volatility. Imports of frozen raspberries from Ukraine to Poland have experienced significant growth, with a 68.2 percent year-on-year increase in value recorded between January and May 2026. Industry representatives suggest this surge may be due to lower quality Ukrainian crops being diverted to Poland following poor weather conditions, raising concerns about the stability of domestic production. Simultaneously, Polish growers are navigating a difficult season. Following a weak summer characterized by low yields, producers are looking to autumn harvests to offset financial losses. While prices for extra-class fruit remain relatively high, total production volumes are being impacted by cool weather slowing the ripening process. Some producers are also facing long-term concerns regarding next year’s season due to poor shoot development in summer varieties. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-10: Polish raspberry growers eye autumn harvest to offset summer losses Autumn raspberry harvests in Poland are underway, with extra-class fruit priced at 19–20 PLN/kg.
