The present invention relates to a vegetable box for a refrigerator in which stored contents such as vegetables are stored. According to the present invention, a small quantity of foodstuffs can be easily put into and taken out from the vegetable box for the refrigerator. To this end, a receiving pocket (55) made of flexible material is installed in a box body (31) constructing the vegetable box (30). The box body (31) is provided with a support (37), which is connected to one side of the receiving pocket (55) for supporting the receiving pocket (55). A leading end of the box body (31) is provided with a front door (39) which is connected with the other side of the receiving pocket (55) and is opened while being inclined forward about hinge shafts (41) formed at lower portions of the box body by pressing of a button (43). The support (37) is formed transversely across an upper end of the leading end of the vegetable box (31). The support (37) is formed with a catching groove (53) in which a catching protrusion (49) of the button (43) is caught.
