Figures are for the whole of HS chapter 07 (edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers); pulses is only part of it. Source: UN Comtrade, as reported by national authorities; latest available year per market.
China is ranked just above at $2.0B, and Vietnam just below at $1.4B. Poland’s 1.8% share of reported world imports of the chapter sits on the boundary between the large buyers and the long list of smaller ones. It is a market that could climb or slip with a moderate change in one year’s data.
That is useful for a seller: it suggests an active buyer base that is still growing into the range of the western neighbours, though the data alone cannot prove a trend.
Total imports are $379.5B. This chapter is 0.4% of them and ranks 44th among Poland’s import chapters. Industrial machinery, electrical equipment and vehicles lead the import bill at $46.8B, $45.4B and $40.0B.
Germany, China, the USA and Italy are the largest overall source markets. This is a cross-goods ranking, useful for understanding the trade orientation of the economy but not for pinpointing legume origins.
Ask the prospect whether they supply retail, food processors or exporters in neighbouring countries. That answer shapes the specification and volumes they need. Verify the current plant-health, labelling and food-safety rules with the competent authority.
Set out Incoterm, currency, payment terms and the discharge port in the first quotation.
The $1.7B is the value of the whole of HS chapter 07, edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers, so pulses are only part of it. Where a market lands can be moved by re-exports and the reporting timetable.
