By , based on LesEco.ma

Moroccan fresh blueberry exports to Poland more than doubled during the 2025-2026 season, exceeding 3,800 tonnes. Morocco thus became the fourth supplier to the Polish market, while Polish blueberry imports grew by an average of 21% a year between 2021 and 2025.

Moroccan fresh blueberry exports to Poland exceeded 3,800 tonnes during the 2025-2026 season, compared with about 1,800 tonnes a year earlier. This more-than-doubling increase enabled Morocco to become the fourth supplier of fresh blueberries to the Polish market, behind Spain, the Netherlands and Germany, according to LesEco.ma.

Morocco thus overtook Peru and Chile, two major suppliers to the international market. Polish imports of fresh blueberries grew by an average of 21% a year between 2021 and 2025, while their value reached $285 million in 2025, according to LesEco.ma.
