Panama’s "Panama Las Americas" reported on November 22 that Ricardo García, chairman of the Panamanian Non-traditional Agricultural Exporters Association, said recently that with the increase in international logistics costs, Panama’s fruit exports have also been affected
.
As far as the European market is concerned, as one of the main export markets for Panamanian fruits, the current cost of transporting melons and watermelons from Panama to Europe (port to port) is about US$2,400, but it will rise to US$4,500 in 2022
.
If the local transportation cost of the destination is to be added, the final transportation cost may rise to 6,000 US dollars

.
Garcia also said that at present they do not know exactly how much shipping costs will increase, and they do not know how many containers are available

Garcia pointed out: “The high production costs and fierce competition from other countries such as Brazil and Costa Rica ultimately affected fruit exports
.
” He said that the current production of Panama melons is declining, and other countries are also filling the market
.
At the same time, Panama’s pineapple planting area has also decreased in recent years, and the pineapples now planted will have to wait a year before being picked and marketed.
Therefore, he does not expect a rebound in pineapple exports in the short term
