According to IndexBox estimates, Argentina continues its dominance on the U.S. organic garlic market.

Spain, Mexico and Albania were the other suppliers of organic garlic in 2015.

While Argentina and Mexico declined their organic garlic exports to the U.S., Spain continues to increase its supplies robustly. Spanish suppliers are to benefit from reduction of imports from Argentina, partially replacing these shrinking volumes on the U.S. market.
