The global pineapple market is experiencing varied performance across different countries and regions. Taiwan's pineapple exports to China have been banned, leading to a surge in sales to Japan and Hong Kong. In contrast, South Africa's pineapple sales have declined due to reduced consumer purchasing power. The Netherlands may see lower pineapple sales this Christmas season. From Italy, data shows an increase in pineapple consumption, especially in December. In South Africa, pineapple production is ongoing, but export pressures persist due to limited consumer demand and reduced international flight activities. Meanwhile, Taiwan has seen a significant increase in pineapple exports to Japan and Hong Kong, as these countries have stepped in to offset the loss from the Chinese market.
