# What does a wholesale price quote mean?

**A quote is the lowest and the highest price recorded on a market on a given day for one product, variety, grade, origin and pack, in the market’s own currency and unit.**

A range such as 1.20–1.55 EUR/kg means that during the trading day the product changed hands at prices between these two values. When a market publishes a single price, the lowest and highest are the same.
The details in the name matter: variety, grade (for example class I), size, origin and pack. A quote for class I apples in a 1-layer tray is a different product from bulk apples for processing, so compare quotes only when they describe the same thing.
For comparisons and indices Husfarm uses the midpoint of the lowest and highest price, but every page shows the range exactly as the market published it.
