Dried Fruit: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $9.50 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $4.90 at volume, on a typical 21-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For dried fruit, the drivers are filtration grade, airflow resistance, electrostatic charge, material layer count, roll width, DEXRON/MERCON spec, friction modifier package, viscosity — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published US-facing wholesale listings show common dried-fruit SKUs such as raisins, cranberries, apricots, dates, apple rings, and mixed dried-fruit products roughly in the $3–$15 per lb range depending on fruit type, processing, and pack size, with specialty or freeze-dried items higher than standard dehydrated fruit. Price is most sensitive to fruit type (premium fruits like blueberries, mango, cherries, and medjool/date products cost more than raisins or apples), cut style (whole, diced, chips, inclusions), and whether the product is sweetened, organic, or freeze-dried; bulk larger-pack pricing on trade sites typically steps down with quantity. Realistic supplier routes are US bulk-food wholesalers for stocked items and Alibaba/import manufacturers for custom-manufactured or private-label runs; the latter often quote MOQ-based carton pricing rather than true per-piece retail packs.
