UPDATE: AVOCADOS

May 1, 2025

Demand has tapered off after the Cinco De Mayo holiday pull. Expect slightly lower markets heading into next week.

Mexico

  • Growers will harvest the normal crop until July
  • Yields are dominated by medium sizes (60- through 70-count fruit)
  • Quality is good; checkerboarding (uneven ripening within a case) has been reported

California

  • Production has increased
  • Stocks are dominated by medium sizes (48- through 60-count fruit)
  • Quality is good; firm fruit has been reported even when ripe

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
