Week 9 in the Chinese market

China doubles arrivals to 64 shipments and maintains stable prices since the beginning of the year

Shipments to China are doubling and exceeding 2025 targets by 60%. Peru leads with 75%, and prices remain firm without any drops since January.

In week 9, the Chinese market recorded 64 shipments of avocados, a figure that doubles the volume received the previous week and is 60% higher than that observed in the same week of 2025. The data confirms a specific rebound in arrivals, in a context that has been marked by the intermittency in shipments.

Regarding the distribution by origin, Peru accounts for 75% of the total, while Chile reaches 25% this week. The shipping patterns maintain the dynamic seen in previous weeks, characterized by periods of lower volume followed by more concentrated arrivals the following week, reflecting an accumulated influx after phases of reduced activity.

In terms of prices, the market is showing stability. There have been no declines for the last three or four weeks, and while increases have been slight, there have been no drops since the beginning of the year, particularly since weeks 2 and 3. This behavior contrasts with what happened in previous years, when it was common to see weeks with significant declines followed by rebounds. In the current scenario, however, the trend has remained constant, with no price decreases.
