France, grapefruit market

France is the leading market in the European Union. Although consumption is decreasing distinctly-this has been particularly noticeable since the end of the 1990s-it is still the largest in Europe at 90 000 tonnes, that is to say about 1.5 kg per person per year. Florida is the dominant supplier as tropical grapefruit has a separate position. However, the crisis experienced by Florida since autumn 2004 is leading to a change in the market supply structure to the benefit of the numerous Mediterranean origins present.
