Peru's agro-exports are booming, with products like grapes, blueberries, avocados, and organic native superfoods like quinoa and maca leading the charge[1][2][4][5]. Exports of these products generated $9.8 billion in revenue in 2022, a 12% increase over 2021[3].
Peruvian avocado exports, in particular, grew 13% in the first six months of the 2022/23 season, with the Netherlands, Spain, and China as key markets[5]. While challenges like climate issues and increased regional competition exist, the outlook remains positive as international demand continues to rise[5].
