Commodity Alert: Lemons

The overall lemon demand far exceeds supplies. Domestic production out of California is nearly finished and what fruit is left is heavy to standard grade. Importers of off shore fruit are still waiting on usable volume of fruit to begin to arrive toward the end of July, with crop reporting to be lighter in volume and larger in size.

For the next couple of weeks, the lemon prices will be increased due to the demand exceeding supply situation.

If you have any questions, please contact your local Piazza Produce Sales Rep or call 317-872-0101.
