Week 51 closed with a notable increase in avocado shipments to Europe, reaching a total of 796 loads, representing a 20% increase compared to the previous week. This growth highlights the market's dynamism at this time of year, with an even distribution among the main exporting origins.

Chile leads slightly with a 22% share, followed closely by Israel with 21%, Colombia with 19%, and Spain and Morocco tied with 18% each. Mexico, meanwhile, lags far behind, representing just 1% of the total.

The most notable case this week was Israel, which showed a significant increase in its shipments. According to reports, the nation shipped 170 containers, 17% more than the previous week. This growth reinforces Israel's leading role in the market, driven by an export strategy that has maintained a strong performance in recent weeks.

In terms of prices, the Netherlands, considered a key market in Europe, saw significant improvements in the smaller sizes. Size 30, for example, showed a 33% increase, representing a significant recovery after weeks of concern over low price levels.

Larger sizes, starting at size 20, remain stable with normal prices. However, the greatest appreciation has been seen in medium and small sizes, which have benefited from less excess volume, consolidating their position as the most profitable this week.

The balance observed in market share among the main exporters and the recovery of prices in Europe reflect an encouraging outlook for the end of the year, marking a positive dynamic in European avocado markets.
