US sees drop in revenue, Europe doubles arrivals from Chile, and China holds prices steady
During week 39, the dynamics of the international avocado market showed important contrasts: while some destinations registered decreases in the volume of arrivals, others maintained figures higher than those of last year, reflecting a scenario of adjustments in both supply and prices.
Approximately 1,300 shipments arrived in the United States, with 78% originating from Mexico, 11% from Peru, and 8% from California. The total volume was 18% lower than the previous week, although it remains 12% above 2024 levels. Prices fell between 5% and 7%, with larger sizes declining by only 2%, while size 48 remains at less than half of last year's value.
In Europe, 894 containers arrived, 13% fewer than the previous week but 29% more than last year, with Chile showing a notable surge, doubling its shipments. In Rotterdam, prices fell across all sizes, particularly for smaller ones, although in Spain, larger sizes saw increases of up to 24%.
China recorded 21 shipments, with a 22% drop and Peru dominating three-quarters of the market.
On the origin side, Peru exported nearly 500 containers, 23% less than the previous week, but maintaining 89% of its shipments to Europe. Chile, meanwhile, reached 521 shipments, 91% of which went to the European market, an unusually high volume for this time of year.
