Global raspberry prices have surged sharply in 2024–2025, driven by weather disruptions, declining yields, and post-harvest logistical challenges. Europe, a major producer of raspberries, has been hit especially hard by late frosts in Poland, Serbia, and Scotland—regions that together account for over 60% of Europe’s raspberry output. The frost wiped out nearly a third of early-season harvests, leading to a severe supply shortage across the continent.
Meanwhile, demand for raspberries—both fresh and processed—continues to grow. According to FAO and Eurofruit data, Europe’s raspberry imports increased by nearly 18% year-on-year, while available frozen and freeze-dried stocks declined by over 25%. This imbalance has caused wholesale raspberry prices to reach record highs, impacting producers of yogurt, bakery fillings, smoothies, and confectionery ingredients.
Richfield Food stands out as a reliable partner during this shortage. With a Vietnam-based factory specializing in tropical and IQF fruit and its China base producing premium freeze-dried berries, Richfield can ensure a stable, diversified, and certified supply. The company’s organic certification, which few Asian suppliers possess, strengthens its credibility among European buyers who must meet strict sustainability and safety requirements.

Richfield’s strength lies not only in its freeze-drying capacity (over 18 large-scale Toyo Giken lines) but also in its ability to source and process raw fruits internally, cutting costs and improving efficiency. Amid global price volatility, these factors make Richfield one of the few suppliers capable of offering price stability and consistent quality.
