It’s Pink Guava Season in Brazil
Strong supply, vibrant color, and consistent quality—available in puree and concentrate
A Seasonal Opportunity Worth Acting On
As Brazil enters peak guava season, we’re seeing strong availability across both puree and concentrate formats. This window offers an opportunity to secure high-quality pink guava with reliable supply and competitive positioning.
Whether you’re developing a new product or optimizing an existing formulation, now is an ideal time to explore guava.
Plan Ahead: Pink Guava Season & Contracting Windows
Brazilian pink guava season runs from April through October, with the strongest availability and most consistent quality at the start of the season.
Because of this, most volume commitments and contracting take place between March and May, when supply, pricing, and forecasts are aligned for the upcoming production cycle.
For brands looking to incorporate guava into new or existing formulations, early engagement is key to securing supply and optimizing cost.
March–May: Primary contracting window for volume and pricing alignment
April–October: Peak production and product availability
Early Season (Now): Best opportunity to evaluate, sample, and secure supply
Engaging during the contracting window allows for better alignment on pricing, volume commitments, and long-term supply planning, particularly for programs scaling into production.
Puree vs. Concentrate: Selecting the Right Format
Pink Guava Puree
Balanced texture and natural body for full-flavor applications.
Smooth, consistent viscosity
Vibrant pink color with natural opacity
Brix range: 8º – 12º
Supports “Not from Concentrate” claims
Available in cartons or drums
Conventional and organic product available
Pink Guava Concentrate
Balanced texture and natural body for full-flavor applications.
Supports cost-in-use optimization by allowing precise dilution to target brix
Brix range: 18º – 20º
Lower water activity than puree
Slightly darker, more intense color from concentration
Available in cartons or drums
