Increased volumes out of Mexico are pushing markets lower. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are available.

Mexico

• Production has increased in the newer regions in Veracruz, Mexico
• Markets are coming down on all sizes, but smaller sizes are seeing the largest drop
• Large sizes, 110- and 150-count, will remain limited for the next several weeks
• Quality is improving, but stylar and oil spotting are intermittent
• Expect markets to inch down further into October

Colombia

• Volumes are lower than anticipated for this time of year
• El Niño weather conditions have caused insufficient rainfall leading to lower yields
• Sizing is skewing heavily toward smaller sizes, 230- and 250-count, leaving the larger sizes tight
• Despite the lower production on the large sizes, markets have softened to stay competitive with Mexico

Hawaii

• The U.S. is still waiting on approval from regulators to begin purchasing Hawaiian limes
• Quality is consistent; however, limes are showing a lighter green shade
• Markets are generally higher than Mexican product
