Competitiveness of South African Avocado

The avocado season in South Africa runs from February to September, with peak production occurring between March and July. This seasonal pattern differs from that of Mexico, the world's largest avocado supplier, making South African avocados a crucial source of off-season supply for global markets.


As consumers increasingly pursue healthier diets, global demand for avocados continues to rise. While Europe remains the primary export destination for South African avocados, growing markets like China, Japan, and Singapore are showing significant increases in demand.


South Africa's avocado industry holds substantial export potential due to its seasonal advantages and ongoing quality improvements. By maintaining consistent supplies of high-quality produce, local growers can capture greater market share internationally.
