U.S. exports of Vegetables (End-Use 00330) totaled $510.0M in August 2026, exported to 146 countries.
Last updated: August 2026 dataFresh, chilled, frozen, and dried vegetables exported from the US span a wide range of crops — from potatoes and onions to leafy greens and processing tomatoes — each with distinct phytosanitary, cold-chain, and market-access requirements. USDA APHIS phytosanitary certification is the standard entry point for fresh vegetable exports, and destination markets may impose additional restrictions tied to specific pests or pesticide residue standards that differ from US EPA tolerances. Frozen vegetables destined for food-service or retail markets abroad often require third-party food-safety certifications (such as SQF or BRC) in addition to regulatory documentation. Seasonal production cycles and weather-driven supply variability make forward contracting and logistics planning especially important for vegetable exporters.

End-Use codes describe different products on the import and export sides. Cross-direction imports are not shown for this slug.
The US EPA sets tolerances based on domestic use patterns and risk assessments, while importing countries establish their own MRLs through separate regulatory processes; a pesticide legally applied to a US crop may exceed the MRL in the destination market, resulting in rejection or destruction of the shipment, so exporters should verify destination MRLs before harvest and application decisions.
Large retail chains and food-service distributors in Europe, Japan, and other key markets commonly require GFSI-recognized food-safety certifications such as SQF, BRC, or IFS as a condition of purchase; these audits assess facility hygiene, traceability, and allergen controls and are separate from — and in addition to — the regulatory phytosanitary and customs documentation required for export.
