Poland Direct Versus Indirect Trade – Poland’s Hidden Market for US Agricultural Exports 2026
U.S. Census Bureau (USCB) bulk, intermediate, and consumer-oriented export data tracks U.S. agricultural and related products shipped directly to Poland. However, USCB data does not reflect the substantial levels of U.S. agricultural trade that arrives in Poland through Western European ports of entry. USCB reported U.S. suppliers shipped $386 million of U.S. agricultural and related products to Poland in 2025. However, as Poland’s Central Statistical Office (CSO) measures trade by country of origin, it reflects both direct and indirect trade and is therefore more extensive. CSO reported Poland sourcing $888 million of U.S. agricultural and related products in 2025. Nuts and dried fruit, seafood, food preparations, whiskies and wines, tobacco, animal feed, and food additives were the top U.S. imported products. FAS/Warsaw encourages USDA cooperators, stakeholders, and other U.S. exporters of agricultural and related products to look beyond USCB data when considering market development strategies for Poland.
