Industry supplies remain adequate. Mexican growers have reduced pricing for next week’s loading, as the 25% tariff has been removed.
Mexico
- Large sizes (32- to 48-count fruit) remain tight, as Mexican growers continue to slow harvesting, driving up demand
- Size and grade substitutions may be requested to fill orders
- Quality is good; checkerboarding (uneven ripening within a case) has been reported
- Expect elevated markets and tight supplies for the next three weeks
California
- Expect limited harvesting through next week due to rain
- Mexican-grown fruit may need to be substituted to fill orders
- Supplies are dominated by medium sizes (48- through 60-count fruit)
- Elevated markets and tight supplies are forecast through next week
Colombia
- Imports will ship into the East Coast through May; these supplies only account for 5% of U.S. demand
- The crop is currently dominated by small sizes (60- to 84-count fruit)
- Quality is comparable to that in Mexico; texture is creamy and oil content is high
