European markets, especially the Netherlands, have seen a surge of low-quality mangoes from Peru, leading to a drop in prices after the New Year. Despite this, consumption in countries like Germany, Italy, and South Africa remains steady, with the Kent variety being the most popular. In the Netherlands, the market is expected to stabilize and prices to rise due to increased transportation costs. In Italy, mango sales are slowing down after the holidays and are priced higher for air imports due to high transportation costs. South Africa is experiencing high-quality mango season but worries about flooding and a 10% decrease in volume from last year, leading to lower prices for the first Tommy Atkins.
