Import tomato prices have decreased in Ukraine, according to analysts at EastFruit.

Ukrainian importers are selling Turkish tomatoes for 75–90 UAH/kg ($1.79–2.15/kg). Analysts from the EastFruit project believe that this is due to the lack of interest from companies and retail networks in making purchases.

This information is reported by the EastFruit press service.

The analysts note that significant volumes of unsold products are accumulating in company warehouses. They suggest that the reason is the lack of demand for imported goods among Ukrainians. At the same time, analysts point out that the prices for imported tomatoes in Ukraine are currently 10% higher than last year.

According to key market players, whose statements are referenced by EastFruit, the decline in prices for imported tomatoes could continue until the end of February 2025 if sales in the segment do not pick up in the near future.

Background. Earlier, Mind reported that trade in agricultural products between Ukraine and the EU reached a record volume last year, amounting to nearly $17 billion, which is 3% higher than the previous record set in 2022.
