Persistent rain in Mexico has begun shifting lime size; larger sizes are more readily available. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are available.
Mexico (into South Texas)
- The month of June saw more than double the total rainfall of May and 15% more rainfall than June 2025
- The consistent rain has increased the availability of large-sized limes (110- and 150-count fruit); smaller sizes, 230- and 250-count limes, will become more limited
- Quality issues, such as oil spotting and stylar, will become more common later in July
- Import numbers fell due to the Independence Day holiday
- Markets for the small sizes are starting to tick up; prices for larger sizes are easing
Colombia
- All sizes are ample; juice content superior compared to Mexican-grown fruit
- The Colombian market remains priced slightly higher than Mexican limes, but is trending down
Hawaii
- Suppliers are waiting for regulatory approval to ship into the mainland United States; stocks are currently shipping to Canada
- Quality has been solid, but minimal blanching is present
