Peruvian blueberry exports up 53% in 2024/2025 with extended harvest

The 2024/2025 campaign of the Peruvian blueberry sector has achieved an extended duration and a leveled production curve, attributed to delayed pruning practices and the introduction of new varietals. This strategic adjustment has allowed for an elongation of the harvesting period, surpassing previous seasons in terms of growth recovery and production output.

As the industry transitions into the 2025/2026 season, early metrics indicate a promising outlook. By the first week of 2025, the campaign has witnessed the shipment of 283.822 tons of blueberries to global markets, marking a 53% increase compared to the same timeframe in the 2023/2024 campaign. This volume includes 251.350 tons of conventional blueberries, showing a 51% increase from the previous season, and 32.472 tons of organic produce, registering a 69% increase despite falling 5% short of initial projections.
