Hass Avocado Dashboard

This data was downloaded from the Hass Avocado Board website in May of 2018 & compiled into a single CSV.

The table below represents weekly 2018 retail scan data for National retail volume (units) and price. Retail scan data comes directly from retailers’ cash registers based on actual retail sales of Hass avocados. Starting in 2013, the table below reflects an expanded, multi-outlet retail data set. Multi-outlet reporting includes an aggregation of the following channels: grocery, mass, club, drug, dollar and military. The Average Price (of avocados) in the table reflects a per unit (per avocado) cost, even when multiple units (avocados) are sold in bags. The Product Lookup codes (PLU’s) in the table are only for Hass avocados. Other varieties of avocados (e.g. greenskins) are not included in this table.

Some relevant columns in the dataset:

· Date - The date of the observation

· Average Price - the average price of a single avocado

· type - conventional or organic

· year - the year

· Region - the city or region of the observation

· Total Volume - Total number of avocados sold.
