High Prices of Avocados in Spain Continues in W13 Due to Scarcity

The avocado market in Spain continues W13 with high prices, mainly because Spanish-origin avocados available in the market are 30% less YoY. In addition, the first exports from Peru had quality problems due to the lack of fat in the fruit, restricting the proper evolution of the fruit and generating even more scarcity of good quality avocados in the market. However, the increase in exports from Peru in the coming weeks will regulate the situation. In W13, the sale price for sizes 12 to 18 is around USD 16.37/4 kg box EXW Spain and USD 14.19-14.73/4kg box for sizes 20 to 24.
