In 2024, the United States fresh mango market experienced a significant downturn due to a 22% drop in imports, particularly from Peru, the second-largest mango exporter. This decline was largely due to adverse weather conditions in Peru, leading to a 71% decrease in Peruvian mango imports. Although Mexico, the primary supplier, managed to maintain its export levels, albeit with a minor 3% decrease, the suspension of U.S. inspections from Michoacán added to the supply chain disruptions. Consequently, retail prices in the U.S. surged, with conventional mangoes averaging $1.53 and $1.18 per pound in the first and second quarters, respectively. Despite a recovery in import volumes and a slight decrease in prices, they still hovered above 2023 levels as of July 2024, showcasing the aftermath of the early year supply shortages.
