In 2023, the United States led global exports of fresh or chilled lettuce. Notably, the top countries, including Spain and Mexico, have seen increases, with Mexico showing significant growth of 4.7% year-on-year. Emerging exporters like Poland, Greece, and Japan exhibited strong growth, while traditional European exporters like France saw declines. Canada's high year-on-year growth indicates potential to increase its market share.
Future trends to watch include the impact of climatic shifts on crop yields, trade policy changes, and sustainability practices influencing production and exportation patterns. Asia, particularly Japan, might become a prominent player with sustained growth.
