Growing demand and crop expansion drive the positioning of Colombian avocados in international markets
Colombia has reached a record high in avocado exports to the United States, consolidating its position as one of the main suppliers of this product in the North American market.
During the first months of 2024, Colombian avocado exports surpassed the previous year's figures, driven by growing demand in the United States. This achievement is the result of the expansion of cultivation areas and compliance with the high quality standards required by the U.S. market.
The growth in exports not only reflects the strength of the Colombian agricultural sector, but also the opening of new commercial opportunities in other international markets. Despite the logistical challenges, Colombia has managed to position itself competitively, standing out in a market dominated by countries such as Mexico.
The authorities and agricultural associations expect this trend to continue, further consolidating the presence of Colombian avocados abroad and contributing to the country's economic development.
