Earlier Report Observations

The volume of the orange market in New Zealand experienced fluctuations between 2018 and 2023. In physical terms, market size declined from 16 160 t in 2018 to 14 007 t in 2022, before recovering to 15 127 t in 2023. In value terms, the market followed a similar pattern but with more pronounced swings, dropping from $25.8 million in 2018 to $20.9 million in 2020, then rising to $28.6 million by 2023.

The market rebound in 2023 coincided with an increase in orange exports for the first time since 2017, ending a five-year downward trend. This export recovery, alongside a slight expansion in harvested area, indicated improved external demand and stable domestic production conditions. Concurrently, higher import volumes supported the growth in total market supply during that year.
