US watermelon shipments typically expand from spring through summer as production moves through southern states and California. Important domestic growing areas include Florida, Georgia, Texas, the Carolinas, and California, while Mexico and some Central American countries supplement supplies outside or around domestic harvest windows. Weather, planting and harvest timing, crop yields, freight conditions, and periods of heavy or limited supply can influence terminal-market wholesale prices. Reported terminal-market prices are wholesale trade prices, not retail store prices.
