The company’s strategic focus on its Marketing & Distribution segment, coupled with a higher pricing environment for avocados and other produce, has bolstered its financial outcomes. Despite a decrease in owned exportable avocado production due to weather-related challenges, Mission Produce managed to leverage its diverse sourcing network to maintain supply.
Looking ahead, Mission Produce remains optimistic about its growth prospects in fiscal 2025. The company aims to continue enhancing shareholder value through operational excellence, strategic growth initiatives, and efficient capital allocation, while anticipating pricing adjustments as supply sources expand.
