UPDATE: LIMES

February 16, 2021

Markon First Crop and Markon Essentials Limes are available. Prices are escalating; all sizes continue to tighten.

  • Mexican crossings into the U.S. are below normal levels, keeping availability limited
    • Transfers through South Texas have been delayed due to extreme weather conditions and road closures
    • Rain is forecast in Mexico’s primary lime region of Veracruz through next week; production will be hindered
    • Supplies continue to tighten especially on small fruit, 175ct and smaller as limes near the end of the crop cycle
  • Expect elevated markets through March, which is normal for this time of year
