14 June, 2021
Europe is an important avocado market for Mission Produce. Between 2013 and 2020, the continent has quintupled the size of its avocado market from 132,000 metric tons to 667,000 metric tons. Despite industry demand being strong and expected to continue to be firm heading into the summer months, Mission Produce is confident it will be able to meet demand. “Based on industry numbers, the European market is expected to have plenty of supply available now that we are in Peru’s season,” says Thomas Padilla, Senior Director of Export Sales for the company.
