Mexico: Avocado Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   MX2025-0017
Mexico’s 2025 avocado production is forecast at 2.75 million metric tons (MMT), a three percent increase over 2024 on strong export demand. Exports are forecast at 1.34 MMT in 2025, up five percent year-on-year. The United States is Mexico’s number one export market and is the destination for 80 percent of exports by volume. The United States is followed by Canada (seven percent) and Japan (three percent). Mexico’s per capita avocado consumption grew nearly ten percent in 2024 to about 27 pounds. Due to growing domestic production imports remain limited and are declining; they are forecast to fall ten percent in 2025 to 3,800 MT.
