How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Red Delicious Apples had 1 new listing in the last 30 days, fewer than the 2 the month before. The catalog is not growing quickly, so the offers available today are mostly from the same sellers as last month. That means a buyer sees a consistent set of prices and pack sizes, with little change in the mix. Check the listing date when comparing two similar offers to confirm which one is more current.
Is the market busy?
2 of the 35 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, so most of the sellers are long-standing. The pool is dominated by those with a history of consistent listings, which makes it easier to assess reliability over time. The smaller number of new entries means a buyer’s shortlist will largely include familiar names. Review each supplier’s listing history before reaching out.

Can these suppliers be trusted?
32 of 35 suppliers are verified, at least three in four, so a buyer can reach out to several verified sellers at once. 16 of 35 list a certificate, and CERTIFICATE_OF_ORIGIN is the most common, held by 3 of them. For a shipment requiring origin documentation, filtering for CERTIFICATE_OF_ORIGIN helps narrow the list to suppliers who provide it. Ask each shortlisted supplier for the certificate up front if the shipment requires it.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Red Delicious Apples listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 9 October 2026 - 91 active listings, 8 buyer requests, 214 source documents, and 1,216 supply observations from the same 365-day window. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Red Delicious Apples type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Red Delicious Apples, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
