Tridge summary

The article highlights the anticipated decrease in Peruvian grape exports in 2024, which is expected to fail to surpass the records set in the previous year due to the early harvest caused by the El Niño phenomenon in 2023. This early harvest led to a high comparison base, resulting in lower monthly and annual export figures. The exports are projected to decrease by 16.29%, totaling only US$ 1,500 million, compared to the US$ 1,792 million achieved in 2023. Grapes are expected to lose their lead in the Peruvian agro-export portfolio to blueberries, with a significant drop in February exports intensifying the downward trend. Despite the United States continuing to be the primary market for Peruvian grapes, the average price in this market has seen a substantial decrease of 19%. The Netherlands and the United Kingdom emerge as notable markets, showing increases in both volume and value of grape imports, with different leading exporters in each market.

Although in the last months of the year they have tried to maintain the pace of last year, the large drop recorded in February (-67%) was ...
