"The high prices of earlier this year are, for now, a thing of the past. At the moment, prices for unripened Hass avocado, in size 18-20, are at around the EUR12,50 level. The smaller sizes are slightly cheaper and the larger sizes a bit more expensive. Currently, there is still a limited supply of large sizes. These will become more available in the coming weeks", expects Nico. "We have to wait and see which sizes are actually sent. I am not worried. Sales will continue to be good throughout the summer. The European market, for, in particular, ready-to-eat avocado is growing rapidly. It will be no different this summer."

"On-year ensures good avocado supply"
