South Korea received Colombia s first shipment of Hass avocados
In 2020, Hass avocados were consolidated as Colombia s second most important agricultural export product, after achieving sales abroad for 144 million dollars and accounting for 4.9% of the country s total non-traditional exports. In 2021, these numbers continue to rise.
Between January and March, this product grew by more than 90% over the same period in 2020, with sales reaching 64.2 million dollars.
Colombia has 34,030 hectares planted with avocado, 26,045 hectares of which correspond to the Hass variety, a fruit that has positioned the country globally and that, after reaching markets as demanding as China or Japan, has opened the way to a new destination: South Korea.
