Taro root wholesale price in the UK
As of April 27, 2026, the wholesale quote for taro root in the UK market is about £15.96 — it's held close to flat at that level across the past 12 months.

What's behind the price
UK produce moves through the wholesale markets — New Covent Garden and the regional markets — fed by British growers in season and by Spanish, Dutch and other imports out of season. That's why a case rate on taro root can shift week to week.
It's held pretty steady across the year. Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Per case or per kilo?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-kilo rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Must be cooked thoroughly as it is inedible raw; choose firm roots free of soft spots and store cool and dry.
