UPDATE: LIMES

April 4, 2023

Elevated prices persist due to decreased production and diminishing supplies in the main growing region of Veracruz, Mexico. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are sporadic.

  • Available supplies remain limited due to reduced production during Holy Week; demand exceeds current supplies
  • New crop fruit remains undersized due to recent rains and cool weather in the Veracruz growing region
    • Crops are dominated by 200- to 250-count fruit
    • No. 2-grade limes remain in short supply
  • Quality is very good with occasional oil spotting and scarring being reported during the grading process
  • Expecting high markets to continue for the next two weeks (until new crop fruit size increases)
  • Markon recommends ample lead time to maximize order fulfillment
