UPDATE: LIMES

June 27, 2023

Lime demand has increased, driving markets higher. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are available.

  • Prices have increased out of Veracruz, Mexico due to previously poor growing conditions that have necessitated extra grading
    • Prolonged drought in the region weaken trees
    • Current high humidity is causing quality issues
  • No. 1 grade quality is good; extra attention is required to remove skin breakdown and stylar
  • Supplies are dominated by 175- through 250-count fruit
  • Expect higher markets heading into the July Fourth weekend

Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.
