Mexican Avocado Industry Unites to Drive Sustainability

The Avocado Institute of Mexico launched its “Path to Sustainability,” a strategic initiative to enhance environmental stewardship in the Mexico avocado industry.

With a new strategic vision, the Path to Sustainability will guide the industry’s commitment to sustainability and quality, from the orchards in Mexico to consumers’ tables, while achieving net-zero deforestation, well-being, and prosperity in the avocado landscape in Mexico.

The new strategic plan for the Mexican avocado industry encompasses all members of the Association of Avocado Exporting Producers and Packers of Mexico (APEAM) and the Mexican Hass Avocado Importers Association (MHAIA).

Developed collaboratively with industry stakeholders and environmental consultants, Pollination Group and Innovagro, the strategy is centered on four key priority areas: aqua/water, biodiversity, climate and deforestation.
