Fresh grapes market in Poland

Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, the fresh grapes market in Poland expanded, with volume rising from 117.1 thousand tons to 125.8 thousand tons. This growth was supported by increased imports, particularly from Italy, Peru, and Chile, as Polish importers relied more on supplies from the Southern Hemisphere. Domestic production of table grapes also rose, and growing consumer interest in seedless varieties contributed to higher consumption.

Between 2021 and 2023, domestic grape production surged significantly, driven by the expansion of vineyard area due to favorable climatic conditions and the development of small wineries, which increased demand for grapes. However, in 2023, the total market volume declined to 129.3 thousand tons despite record production, as higher exports of fresh grapes and a decrease in imports reduced domestic availability.

In 2024, regulatory changes for wine production, including new registration requirements for producers, continued to shape the market structure, while high import levels from traditional suppliers like Italy and Peru maintained strong supply. The growth of small wineries and associated agritourism further influenced consumer awareness and preferences for grape-based products.
