A fast-ramping corridor

Aguacate→US has shipped US$208.9M over the full 30-month window; on a complete-calendar-year basis it grew 73.6% in 2025 versus 2024. The blended unit value of US$2.19/kg tracks the Hass segment.

Netherlands first, US second

Counter-intuitively, the largest single buyer of Colombian avocado is the Netherlands at US$358.7M — a re-export hub distributing into the EU — while the whole group spans US$854.9M across all destinations.

Reading the last months

The final cells of the snapshot run visibly low. This is a filing-lag artefact, not a demand signal: treat recent months as provisional and rely on full-year comparisons for growth claims.

Is recent-month weakness real?

No conclusion should be drawn from the last cells of the snapshot (filing lag); growth claims on this page use complete calendar years only, and recent months are flagged provisional.

Where does this data come from?

How fresh is the data?

The underlying snapshot covers January 2024 through June 2026 at monthly grain, fetched on 2026-10-18 (UTC). Recent months can look low because customs filing lags — treat the newest cells as provisional.
