The subject of this research is an analysis of the export of processed vegetables from the Republic of Serbia in the period 2014-2018. The purpose of the research is to examine the actual trends in the export of processed vegetables from Serbia in the period under consideration relative to the volume, value and destination of the export. The average export of processed vegetables from the Republic of Serbia amounted to 22.607 tons per year, indicating a moderate increase at an average annual rate of 3.86 %. Compared to fresh and frozen vegetables, processed vegetables claimed the smallest share in the total Serbian export structure (accounting for 13.8 %). The average export value of processed vegetables was $47.3 million. From the value perspective, processed vegetables accounted for 35.6 % of the Serbian vegetable export value, which is far more significant than the export volume share of processed vegetables.
