Wonderful Pistachios of Los Angeles is preparing for his biggest volume season yet.
Global demand for California pistachios is not holding back, having more than doubled over the past 10 years, with pistachio acreage growing by 6% to 10% annually. The upcoming fall 2025 harvest in California is expected to set a record, with yields potentially reaching 1.6 billion pounds.
Pistachio trees follow an alternate-bearing cycle, producing strong yields one year and lighter yields the next. Even in off-years, Wonderful Pistachios is well prepared, having invested more than $1 billion in its operations and capacity to ensure a year-round supply for the industry.
“People are just starting to see the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the versatility of pistachios, and they’re not holding back – they’re documenting and sharing it like never before,” said Diana Salsa, vice president of marketing at Wonderful Pistachios. “From pistachio lattes to Dubai chocolate and even perfumes, pistachios add a pop of bright green that other snack nuts can’t match – and it’s making for a seriously Insta-worthy campaign.”
