UPDATE: LIMES

July 13, 2023

The lime market has lost momentum; overall demand is lighter after the fourth of July holiday. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are available.

  • The Mexican growing region of Veracruz has experienced extreme heat and humidity, lowering yields
  • South Texas crossings are lighter this week
  • Quality is average; overall shelf life is diminished
  • Extra attention will be required during the grading process to remove skin breakdown and stylar
  • Sizing is dominated by 175- through 250-count fruit
  • Expect prices to fluctuate through the month of July
