Earlier Report Observations
The market volume for fresh aubergines in Venezuela expanded from 13 500 t in 2018 to 16 600 t in 2023, reflecting a steady upward trend despite a minor contraction in 2022. Production increases were most pronounced in 2019, when output jumped by over 10% to nearly 15 000 t, followed by more moderate growth of around 2% annually in 2020 and 2021. After a slight dip to 15 300 t in 2022, the market rebounded strongly in 2023, reaching a new high of 16 600 t.
In 2024, the retail landscape for fresh produce saw significant developments with the expansion of supermarket chains like Excelsior Gama, which reopened and enlarged stores to cater to changing consumer preferences and enhance quick shopping experiences. This growth in organized retail improved the distribution and visibility of aubergines. Simultaneously, high inflation, measured at 172% year-on-year in April 2024, eroded purchasing power and caused aubergine prices to double within weeks, directly regulating consumer consumption patterns. Logistics were supported by specialized companies such as Agrimer, which provided nationwide refrigerated transport for fresh fruits and vegetables, facilitating efficient supply chains.
