PRICES IN ICELAND IN 2022
Prices in Iceland after the crisis in 2009 did not change as much as one would imagine. The truth is that the price of real estate and restaurant meals dropped somewhat, but basic products (such as food in supermarkets) have not undergone major changes in recent years. Of course, with the more favorable exchange rate with EUR Iceland, it did get a tad cheaper. Compare some prices in Iceland from 2019.

In Iceland they produce many of their own vegetables and fruit. Although it seems incredible until recently Icelanders were the largest producers of bananas in Europe. In the greenhouse village in Hveragerdi they were able to plant more bananas than in other European areas. After the crises, the focus on local food became even more important for local suppliers and the people themselves always tried to support the country's companies instead of consuming imported vegetables. We recommend trying Icelandic potatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes or onions.
