French market June 2002 indicators : banana, avocado, orange, grapefruit, mango West African Season

CIRAD-FLHOR-ARF - FRA. 2002. French market June 2002 indicators : banana, avocado, orange, grapefruit, mango West African Season. Fruitrop (English ed.) (93) : 24-29.

Résumé : Banana: After being comparatively favourable since the beginning of the year, the market suddenly worsened considerably in June. Shipments were greater than the average for previous years while demand slowed markedly because of strong competition from summer fruits. The average price therefore approached the very disappointing level reached in 2000. Avocado: Demand recovered in June and supplies were also smaller than average, especially of green varieties. However, performance was comparatively disappointing as prices decreased by nearly 25% in comparison with the average for the past three years. orange: Demand was still good for the time of year during the first part of the month but slowed distinctly after mid-June as the result of strong competition from summer fruits. Distribution handled mainly winter origins, especially Spain which had a strong potential of late varieties this season. Navels from South Africa were therefore unable to gain a position on the market. Grapefruit: The grapefruit market displayed the first poor performance since October, with the average price failing to its lowest level for four seasons. Demand slowed more markedly than in the preceding seasons. The main feature was the large quantities available as a result of the prolonging of the winter seasons and an explosive start to the South African season. Mango West African Season: The West African season continued to dominate the market with coloured varieties in June. The situation remained fairly stable with limited supplies and more restrained demand for tropical fruits.
