If you are interesting I can give a contact of a shipping agent if you are going to make a business

This is just a matter of curiosity. It would seem that Ecuador would not be able to compete with growers on the Caribbean Sea due to transport, but I see plenty of bananas from Ecuador on the East Coast. It's further to ship and you have to pay the toll through Panama. How do you compete with Honduras?
