The market went through a sluggish period. The Mediterranean supply progressed in November with moderate volumes. While demand was slow, sales of Israeli, Turkish and Spanish grapefruit took advantage of Florida’s absence (late start toward the end of November) and the distribution sector’s abandonment of the last Mexican batches. The end of the Mexican campaign was catastrophic (quality problems, abundance of small sizes), and there were stocks available until late December at very low prices. Rates for Mediterranean grapefruits managed to maintain levels slightly above average. The arrival of December, a traditionally quiet time of year, led to a distinct slowdown in sales. Floridian volumes remained in shortfall, and prices in December were high.
