Colombia boosts its avocado exports with a 72% increase in week 2

Colombia ended week 2 with 174 avocado exports, distributed primarily between Europe, which received two-thirds of the volume, and the United States, which received the remaining third. This distribution pattern remains consistent compared to previous weeks.

The increase compared to the previous week is remarkable, with a 72% rise, likely influenced by the proximity to the New Year, which may have affected the harvest and caused a surge in this second week. This export level is very similar to last year's, registering only a 3% increase in 2025.

In Europe, Colombia achieved a 29% market share during week 2, while in the United States it was 4%. Projections for the coming weeks are optimistic, anticipating an increase in volumes that could exceed 200 containers, reaching a possible peak before the expected decline begins with the end of the season.

This behavior reflects the sustained effort of Colombian exporters to consolidate their position in key markets and maintain a competitive pace despite seasonal variations.
