Peruvian avocado exports to U.S. to grow 75% in the 2025 campaign

The Association of Hass Avocado Producers and Exporters of Peru (ProHass) has revised its projections for the remainder of the 2025 season.

According to a press release, the estimated export volume is 655,000 tons, representing a 20 percent reduction compared to the March projection. Despite this, the total volume is expected to increase by 30 percent compared to the 2024 season, as reported by Redagricola.

The association indicated that, despite the trend toward lower volumes compared to previous reports, the sector maintains favorable prospects for its main international destinations.

For example, despite the increase in shipping rates and the application of a 10 percent tariff in the North American market, exports to the United States are projected to grow by 75 percent compared to the previous year, representing an 18 percent share of the total exported volume.

Europe, for its part, has consolidated its position as the top destination market, with a projected growth of 24 percent compared to the previous year. It is worth noting that Peru is the leader in this market, with a 42 percent share. Meanwhile, other strategic markets such as Chile, China, and Japan continue to strengthen their position as key destinations for Peruvian Hass avocados.

ProHass noted that this positive performance occurs in a challenging context, marked by rising logistics costs and the downward revision of initial estimates, but despite these factors, the sector maintains a solid foundation, supported by operational efficiency, market diversification, and compliance with high quality standards.

“These figures confirm that, even in an adverse environment, the joint effort between producers, exporters, and authorities allows the pace of growth to be maintained,” said José Antonio Castro, president of the association.

ProHass reported that the sector will continue monitoring the performance of international markets to ensure the sustainability and competitiveness of Peruvian exports.
