Agrofresh adjusts pricing to offset rising global supply chain costs

AgroFresh has increased prices globally and introduce a temporary energy and logistics surcharge as rising oil prices and supply chain disruptions drive up costs across the agricultural sector.

The company implemented a 6% price adjustment across its portfolio, alongside a temporary 3% surcharge on energy and logistics costs, effective March 31, 2026. AgroFresh cited rising energy prices, ongoing logistical instability, and higher raw-material costs as the key drivers behind the move.

Han Kieftenbeld, CEO of AgroFresh said “Our focus is on ensuring growers, packers, and exporters can continue operating with confidence despite unprecedented volatility in energy and logistics markets.”

AgroFresh has absorbed most cost increases in recent years while maintaining service levels for customers. However, continued geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have intensified pressure on energy and transportation costs, prompting the company to take action.

The adjustment will affect operations in North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America, where AgroFresh supports major exporters, packers, and growers of fresh produce. The company will continue to monitor market conditions and review the surcharge as energy and logistics markets evolve.

AgroFresh provides post-harvest solutions aimed at extending shelf life, preserving quality, and reducing waste across the fresh produce supply chain. The company partners with growers and shippers globally to maintain consistent supply while advancing sustainability initiatives.

Customers seeking details on the adjustment are advised to contact their AgroFresh account representatives.
