UPDATE: AVOCADO SUPPLIES

November 18, 2024

Large-size avocados are becoming limited as Mexico’s current crop is dominated by small-size fruit.

Mexico

  • Large sizes (32- to 48-count supplies) are limited
  • Small sizes (60- to 70-count stocks) are plentiful
  • Expect an even distribution of sizes in early December
  • Prices for large sizes will remain elevated over the next three weeks

Colombia

  • Columbian imports will ship into the East Coast through May; these supplies only account for 5% of U.S. demand
  • The crop is currently dominated by small sizes (60- to 84-count fruit)
  • Quality is comparable to that in Mexico; texture is creamy and oil content is high
