Mexican supplies of avocados continue to be strong.
“We’ve seen record harvest out of Mexico in the last three weeks. Last week, 84 million lbs. were being harvested, of which 70 million lbs. came into the U.S. Supply is not an issue,” says Keith Slattery of Stonehill Produce Inc. in Capistrano Beach, CA.
Mexico has the market largely to itself currently. “California did have heavy winds come through last week and damage was sustained in certain growing regions. It’s still too early to assess that loss on this year’s California crop,” says Slattery. “California has been released to harvest but lack of size and low grower field pricing has delayed the season from starting.”
