The Source Weekly Highlights:
Featured Market Alerts:
Avocados - 60ct and 70ct triggers are in effect. The 48ct are also poised to escalate. As Cinco De Mayo pull comes into effect, markets are poised to rise again. Peru is just around the corner, with fruit expected to arrive in volume by late May or early June. The Peruvian fruit coming into the US will peak at 60/70ct, which is not normal. Since Mexican fruit has a higher dry matter content, ripening times remain short. Because of lower dry matter, California fruit is coming online in a light way.
Cauliflower - The cauliflower supply remains tight. Cooler weather slows growth, causing fields to lag behind. The market is expected to remain high into next week.
Citrus (Oranges) - Fruit is currently peaking on 72ct and larger; 88/113/138ct are extremely scarce and will remain that way throughout the navel season. Low fruit set and rain events will cause fruit to grow larger as the season progresses. As we navigate this shorter Navel season, please be flexible with size and grade. Lead time is very important; please send orders 5-7 days in advance. Brix are in the 12-14 range; quality is good. Zero gassing at this time.
