It's amazing that people try to grow bananas in the climate that is not original for the nature of bananas. |

I uploaded some pictures of our products in the gallery We work now with Europe. We never had a chance to make business with USA unfortunately. But I know many ecuadorian companies that export to New York and Miami. So Chiquita and Del monte are not the only one on the american market |

You probably won't do well in the USA market with the Cavendish. The vast majority of Americans seem to prefer a cooking banana as their dessert banana, although there is a member in San Diego that appreciates the Cavendish. and there might be some Closet Cavendish Lovers. It seems the Namwah is the preferred dessert banana in the USA and it is also the most popular cooking banana in Cuba. We have a member here that is doing great in the Florida Market with Namwahs. He gets $36 per carton box of 18.14 kg., here in PR we have to make a profit at $7. It's incredible but that extra $29 would be pure profit. At those prices a farmer in Ecuador could retire after the first crop. What is a ballpark figure that a farmer gets in your country?
