Avocado market in Europe: stable volumes, but price adjustments
The avocado market in Europe has maintained a stable trend in terms of volume over the past four weeks. In week 8, 665 shipments were recorded, just 2% lower than the previous week, but 9% higher than the levels for the same period in 2024.
Israel remains the leading supplier with a 35% market share, closely followed by Spain at 24% and Colombia at 19%. Other origins such as Morocco, Chile, and Peru also contribute to the market, with Peru showing notable growth, having shipped 35 containers this week and further solidifying its presence. Additionally, fruit is arriving from Kenya and Tanzania, although in smaller volumes.
However, some countries have reduced their shipments: Chile, Israel (-10%) and Morocco (-29%) show decreases compared to the previous week.
Regarding prices, Spain saw an 18% drop in the price of size 18 (large fruit), while in the Netherlands, prices for large sizes remained stable. In contrast, smaller sizes, such as size 30, experienced an 11% decrease. Although these adjustments are not drastic, they do reflect increased pressure on smaller sizes.
The European market is still in an adjustment phase, with variations in supply and demand that could define the trend in the coming weeks.
