UPDATE: LIMES

October 12, 2023

Supplies are tight in Veracruz, Mexico due to recent inclement weather. Markets remain elevated, especially those for larger sizes. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Markon Essentials (ESS) Limes are available.

  • Stocks are snug as the Veracruz region experienced rainstorms this week
    • Large sizes (110- to 150-count fruit) are extremely limited; however, new crop smaller sizes (230- to 250-count limes) are widely available
    • Packers are grading heavily for blanching, scarring, and oil spots
  • The Jalisco region, which adds to overall lime volume in December, will see lower yields due to Hurricane Lidia
  • Expect the price spread between large and small sizes to persist into next week

Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.
