Markets continue to fall as Peruvian imports enter the market and Baja, Mexico moves into peak season. Expect steady prices for the next seven to ten days.
Mexico
- Baja, Mexico is North America’s primary growing region
- Strong winds and flooding caused by Hurricane Hilary did minimal damage to crops; suppliers have worked to cull scarred and bent stalks
- Size profile has evened; large and standard sizes dominate availability
- Jumbo and extra-large supplies are increasingly available
Peru
- Volume remains below average due to an early onset of El Nino weather pattern but supplies through September have been plentiful
- Growing regions in Southern Peru are seeing good quality and high yields
- FOB pricing out of Miami is comparable to Mexican product crossing at the southern border
