Earlier Report Observations

The in-shell almond market in the Americas grew from 1.8 million tons in 2018 to a peak of 2.4 million tons in 2020. This expansion was primarily driven by increased almond planting acreage in California and rising global demand for plant-based foods, which boosted consumption. During the COVID-19 pandemic, almonds were favored as a healthy snack, sustaining strong market demand despite some supply chain disruptions.

After 2020, market volume contracted for three consecutive years, falling back to 1.8 million tons by 2023. Persistent logistics bottlenecks hampered exports, while regulatory changes—including amendments to the California Almond Marketing Order and new phytosanitary certificate requirements for key markets—added complexity. Industry consolidation, such as Blue Diamond Growers closing its Sacramento processing facility, further contributed to lower production volumes in 2023.
