Earlier Report Observations
The market volume for quinces in Argentina showed a consistent, gradual increase from 29 349 tons in 2018 to 30 160 tons by 2023. This slow growth in the initial years occurred within a stable market structure, with production primarily destined for processed goods like jams and jellies.
From 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic shifted consumer preferences, boosting demand for agroecological quinces as attention to food origin and environmental impact grew. This sustained consumption helped the market continue its upward trend despite recurrent adverse climatic factors like frosts and droughts, which periodically constrained output. The following year, market volume stabilized as this demand for valued, origin-based products was balanced by these persistent production challenges.
In the 2022-2023 period, regulatory developments provided further support. The implementation of front-of-package labeling laws and updated Senasa regulations for fresh fruit packaging strengthened quality standards and traceability. Concurrently, active promotion of quince as an emblematic product in tourist and gastronomic circuits, particularly in regions like Belén, alongside continued technical assistance for producer organizations, contributed to the market's steady expansion.
