The Colombia Avocado Board (CAB) recently announced a 270 percent increase in total avocado pounds shipped to the U.S. for the 2021-2022 season. This data is provided by the Hass Avocado Board who tracks shipments and sales of Hass avocados from all growing regions.
Colombia has produced and distributed avocados for decades, however, the growth and popularity of Colombia Avocados has expanded due to access to U.S. market starting in 2018 along with expanding country infrastructure improvements. The 2021-2022 season ended with its largest shipment totals on record shipping over 24 million pounds.
“We’ve never underestimated the power of the U.S. market and we are so happy to expand our volume to meet the growing demand while also offering the value of Colombia’s proximity to ocean ports providing valuable freight advantages,” commented Ricardo Uribe, chairman of CAB. Uribe concluded by noting, “The American consumer’s appetite for avocados continues to grow, leading U.S. businesses to seek reliable, year-round solutions and we’re proud to be able to provide that for them.”
Colombia is a global avocado exporter with unique advantages thanks to a growing region with reliable rainfall and direct worldwide distribution. CAB has been vital to the success of their grower and importer partners as they partner with global competition for maximum reach which has proven successful for everyone involved.
