A survey by Ismea presented by Macfrut Academy reveals a growing preference for avocados and mangoes among Italian consumers. Over the past five years, avocado imports have surged by 120%, with one in four Italian families buying at least one avocado annually. However, Italy still ranks sixth in avocado consumption in Europe. Mango imports have seen a more modest growth of 37%, with purchases driven primarily by the fruit's appeal. Both fruits are projected to see continued growth in the short to medium term.
