We contribute to SDG 17 Partnerships dedicated to achieving the goals

We expanded the planting area of a farm from one to six. Currently, we have a total of 1,062.33 hectares, of which 534 are in production.

In the last 4 years, we have tripled the size of our business, thanks to the contributions of our collaborators, clients, business partners, and suppliers.

We opened new independent marketing channels.

We increased productivity per hectare on the farms..

At this moment, we represent 1.5% of the national banana market.

We generate up to $14 million annually in foreign exchange for Costa Rica.

We also make an impact through successful public-private partnerships with public institutions, local government, and other companies.

Our robust governance structure has allowed us to transform the way we operate.
  • We changed the way we integrate management systems, shifting from procedures focused on regulations to a comprehensive vision of sustainability, where systems are classified by key areas: financial health, environment, supply chain safety, occupational health and safety, human rights, corporate social responsibility, and more.
  • We implemented smart indicators and adjusted our strategic planning to effectively and timely achieve our environmental, social, and governance goals.
  • We foster close collaboration with our clients and other stakeholders, promoting an exchange of information that validates our strengths and areas for improvement within the supply chain.
  • We participate in social dialogue initiatives between companies, clients, collaborators, and other participants in the value chain.
  • We have adopted advanced platforms such as ECOVADIS, a strict external auditing model, to assess our performance in sustainability and due diligence.
  • We implemented the SHERPA platform, which, through questionnaires designed by specialists, measures our progress toward sustainability, integrating the principles of the European Green Deal.
