Tridge summary

Peruvian mango exports for the year ending October 2024 saw a decrease of 4.7%, totaling US$ 201 million, due to climatic conditions. The Peruvian Association of Mango Producers and Exporters (APEM) anticipates improved results for later in the year and 2025. The export campaign started earlier than usual, leading to a reduction in the export projection from 240 thousand tons to 190 thousand tons due to early ripening caused by water shortage. The majority of the export volume will occur in December and January, with Piura contributing nearly 80% of the production. Efforts are underway to implement protocols for exporting Peruvian mangoes to Indonesia and Malaysia by 2025.
