Prices have already started to rise, and everything points to them continuing to rise next week, because practically only Brazil is shipping limes to Europe.
Prices on the European market currently range between 6.50 and 7.50 euros per box, with the prospect of further increases in the coming weeks."
European consumers prefer Brazilian limes because they have a sourer and stronger flavor," says the executive.
"Prices in Brazil are very high, which is why many exporters prefer to sell their limes in the domestic market, rather than send them to Europe."
