Earlier Report Observations

The market for fresh strawberries in Iran demonstrated notable stability in physical terms between 2018 and 2023. Consumption volume fluctuated within a narrow band, peaking at 65 657 tonnes in 2019 before settling around 64 500 tonnes in the following years. This period concluded with a market size of 64 554 tonnes in 2023, reflecting only marginal changes from the level seen in 2018.

In contrast, the market's value in U.S. dollars showed significant swings. After a decline to $88.7 million in 2019, the total market value rose consistently to reach $103.0 million in 2022. However, this trend reversed sharply in 2023, with the market value dropping to $85.1 million. These movements indicate substantial variations in price levels or underlying costs that did not correspond to changes in the physical volume of strawberries consumed.
