Defra Wholesale Prices United Kingdom Avocado Report — Live Prices & Market Data

Defra Wholesale Prices is the official UK wholesale price series published by the UK Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs. Defra publishes weekly average wholesale fruit and vegetable prices, including avocados, collected from the UK's principal wholesale markets. This report page for United Kingdom connects the original Defra publication with live daily pricing: UK wholesale avocados are traditionally quoted per piece rather than per kilo, and nine national supermarket chains are tracked live, from Aldi and Lidl to Waitrose and M&S.

Avocado Chat layers its own scanned market data on top of the source: the current average price, the 30-day trend and the origin mix for the United Kingdom, all in GBP per kilogram on the retail shelf. We are an independent service, not affiliated with the UK Department for Environment — the source link below always points to the original publication.
