In the four weeks to Sep 27, 2026, the U.S. imported 3.1 million lb of fresh jackfruit, 8% less than the same weeks last year. Mexico supplied 100%. Over the past year, all of it arrived by truck, most often through Otay Mesa, California.

FSMA 204Jackfruit is on the FDA Food Traceability List under Tropical tree fruits (fresh). Tropical tree fruits are listed, with papaya and mango carrying the most outbreak history. Contamination typically traces to post-harvest handling in the growing region. Every buyer, distributor, and receiver in the chain must record the traceability lot code and its source at receipt — compliance is required by July 20, 2028. What buyers need to record →

How these numbers are measured

Source: USDA AMS Specialty Crops Market News, import movement report (WA_FV170), which records fresh fruit and vegetable shipments entering the U.S. by commodity, country of origin, port of entry and mode, in pounds, every weekday. Lines USDA lists more than once are added together, since nothing in the report marks them as duplicates. Dried, frozen and for-processing lots are left out, and tree nuts are not counted as produce.

Weeks run Monday to Sunday and count once the Friday report is in. Comparisons with last year use the same weeks 52 weeks earlier, and are shown only when both periods carry at least 40,000 lb (one truckload) with shipments in 3 of the 4 weeks. USDA widened this report from about 27 to more than 70 ports of entry in December 2024, so nothing here reaches back before Dec 16, 2024.

A commodity with shipments in fewer than 8 of the last 12 weeks is marked sporadic: its weekly numbers can swing on a single container, so read them as a record of arrivals rather than a trend.
