Earlier Report Observations

Saint Lucia's copra market experienced considerable fluctuation from 2018 to 2023. Starting at 339 t, production initially rose to 400 t in 2019 before halting and sharply declining to 241 t the following year. The market then demonstrated a consistent recovery over the subsequent three years, ultimately reaching 413 t in 2023.

The market size, which closely tracked domestic production due to negligible import and export activity after 2018, followed this same volatile path. The period was characterized by a distinct downturn in 2020 followed by a sustained multi-year growth phase, resulting in a net volume increase for the entire timeframe.
