Earlier Report Observations

The Chilean market for fresh or chilled capsicum and pimenta fruits showed considerable variation in volume from 2018 to 2023. Starting at 69 651 tons in 2018, the market contracted over the next two years, stabilizing around 63 000 tons, before entering a period of substantial expansion.

Market volume grew sharply in 2021 and 2022, increasing by over 16% annually to reach 84 430 tons. This rise aligned with a broader global increase in fresh pepper exports, which likely encouraged higher domestic production. The growth was interrupted in 2023, when the market size receded to 75 457 tons.
