UPDATE: CUCUMBERS

January 10, 2023

Cucumber markets have increased due to higher demand and limited supplies. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Cucumbers are available.

  • Cool weather in Sonora has limited Mexico’s supply; quality is good
  • Nogales, Arizona experienced short-term shipment delays this past weekend due to the cartel incident on January 5 in Sinaloa, Mexico; expect supply to normalize over the next few days
  • The Florida domestic season has ended; imports from Honduras (landing in South Florida) are limited
  • Higher costs in transportation and less fruit planted this season have increased offshore cucumber prices
  • Expect increased prices this week

Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.
