August Trend: Colombia Fresh fruits Export
Fresh fruits, classified under HS Code 0804 (Dates, figs, pineapples, avocados, guavas, mangoes and mangosteens, fresh or dried), saw a sharp contraction in August, with export value plunging 31.22% MoM to $22.13M USD and volume dropping 25.73% to 12.73M kg. Unit prices fell 7.40% to $1.74/kg, marking the third consecutive monthly decline.

This follows a volatile year, with prices swinging between $1.74/kg and $2.31/kg since January.

Geographic Concentration & Market Logic
The United States dominates Colombia's fresh fruit exports, accounting for 54.4% of value but only 55.1% of weight, indicating a balanced trade structure without extreme premium or bulk bias. However, Canada and the UAE show a value-volume gap: Canada’s 13.3% value share vs. 9.2% weight suggests higher-value demand, while the UAE’s 2.2% value share from just 0.9% weight signals premium niche markets. The UK and Spain, with near parity in value and weight, act as stable volume hubs. This structure reveals Colombia’s export strategy prioritizes diversified demand, balancing bulk flows (UK, Spain) with selective premium markets (Canada, UAE).

Colombia HS Code 0804 Breakdown & Value Logic
Avocados (HS 0804400010) dominate Colombia's HS Code 0804 exports, accounting for 86.5% of value and 94.7% of weight—per yTrade data—highlighting a bulk-volume market where scale trumps unit price. The remaining sub-codes (guavas, mangoes, pineapples) collectively contribute minimal share, reinforcing avocados as the primary driver. This skew suggests Colombia's export strategy prioritizes high-volume, low-margin fresh fruit trade, likely leveraging competitive production costs over premium pricing. The absence of unit price data for avocados further implies commoditization. For August 2025, HS Code 0804 remains a volume play, not a value-added niche.
