The composition of export origins shows a significant reshuffling. Israel has risen to first place with 28% of the total, followed by Colombia with 22%. Chile and Spain share third place with 20% each, while Morocco lags behind with 9%. On a weekly basis, Spain stands out with a 50% increase in volume, while Israel has grown by 17% and Colombia remains stable. In contrast, Chile has registered a sharp contraction, with a 41% drop compared to the previous week, solidifying its position as the country with the largest decline during the period.

In terms of prices, week 51 reflects a clearly differentiated behavior by size in the Rotterdam market. Large sizes, from 14 to 18 and up to 20, show decreases of around 5% to 6%, while smaller sizes experience very marked increases, exceeding 25% in the case of sizes 26 and 30. Medium sizes also register significant, although more moderate, increases, in the approximate range of 15% to 20%.

In the Spanish market, the trend is even more widespread, with price increases across virtually all sizes, with smaller sizes again benefiting the most in percentage terms. This scenario is explained by a context of high demand and low availability, intensified by the period leading up to the end-of-year holidays. Reports from Europe indicate that the week will be short on supply, with demand remaining high, reinforcing the expectation that prices will continue to rise in the short term.
