Marketing Update: making babies better Capitalising on the recent nutrition work (see more of the nutrition information available for health professionals by clicking here), the Australian Avocados activity on social media has been sharing the health benefits of avocados. This has included a recent Facebook post on the benefits of avocados for mums and bubs (they’re a good source of folate, B vitamins and healthy fats) and Instagram content about nutrients and healthy fibre. The industry’s marketing activity is helping Aussie consumers connect with (and eat!) Australian avocados. This marketing activity is managed by Hort Innovation and funded by the avocado marketing levy. #smashanavo

REPORT NOTES:
The Weekly Infocado report is compiled using data contributed by avocado packhouses, consolidators and wholesalers through the Infocado system. We estimate that 85% of industry is represented in this report. Please note that Quarterly Infocado reports incorporate an allowance (by region) for the data which is not contributed to the Infocado system. It is thus, not possible to extrapolate the figures from Weekly Infocado reports to those in Quarterly Infocado reports.
Initially, this report is provided to Infocado contributors only, then publicly released six weeks later. Until public release, the report is confidential.
This report has been funded by Hort Innovation, using the avocado research and development levy and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower-owned, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture.
