45 notifications on fruit and vegetables from Greece since 1 January 2020. That is 26% of all EU notifications on products from Greece and under 1% of all notifications on fruit and vegetables from any origin; Greece ranks 28 of 117 origins for this category. 11 in the 365 days to 8 November 2026, against 8 in the 365 days before, up 38%.

Most reported: chlorpyrifos (6), acetamiprid (5) and ochratoxin A (4). 0% were border rejections (52% for fruit and vegetables from all origins) and 64% had a serious risk decision. The products named most often were figs (6), grapes (6) and cucumbers (4).

Counts start on 1 January 2020 and run to 8 November 2026, the day the list was last read. A notification that names two countries of origin counts for each. Findings come from our word list matched against the EU subject line, which is never shown; 96% of all notifications match it, the rest count as other finding. Each reference links to the official record on RASFF Window. How this works.
