Makfood Company operates in a global market where supply stability has become a critical factor for the food and beverage industry. In the case of pineapple and its derivatives, recent market developments clearly show that ensuring continuity requires more than short-term availability: it demands planning, experience, and active supply management.
The chart below shows the price evolution of pineapple juice concentrate (60/65 Brix) from two of the world’s key supply origins: Thailand and Costa Rica.
Updated through early 2026, it highlights a market characterized by:
- Sustained high price levels
- Clear structural differences between origins
- Recurrent periods of supply pressure
This behaviour confirms that the pineapple market is increasingly exposed to structural tensions driven by seasonality, climatic conditions, and the concentration of production in specific regions.
Beyond price: the impact on industrial planning
For industrial buyers, this market evolution affects more than cost levels. It directly influences:
- Production planning
- Cost management
- Operational continuity
In scenarios like the one reflected in the chart, strategies based solely on spot purchasing or reliance on a single origin significantly increase risk and reduce flexibility.
