UPDATE: GRAPES

May 10, 2023

The Chilean/Peruvian offshore season is quickly winding down. Green and red storage supplies will ship through next week while portioned grapes will remain available into early June. The Mexican season has been delayed until late May. Supplies will be extremely limited the week of May 22 as the offshore storage season will be ending and Mexican volume will not meet demand.

Mexico
