Fruit Market FAQs
What drives fruit prices?
Fruit prices are driven by weather during flowering and ripening, harvest size and timing, and the short shelf life that limits how much supply can be stored or shifted. A poor season in a key origin can move prices quickly.
Why is fruit pricing so seasonal?
Most fruit is harvested in defined windows once or twice a year, so prices follow a seasonal pattern tied to that harvest, with the tightest supply and highest prices typically just before the new crop arrives.
What is an Expana IQ Forecast?
An Expana IQ Forecast is an automated, model-generated price projection built from historical price patterns, including short-term movements, longer-term trend and seasonality. Each forecast comes with AI-generated commentary explaining the outlook.
What fruit does Expana cover?
Expana’s fruit coverage spans stone fruit such as peaches, berries including strawberries and blackberries, and citrus, across both fresh wholesale and frozen (IQF) processed grades.
What factors influence fruit price forecasts?
