Posted On 25 Nov 2015

 

banano24ago11_1The largest production of bananas in Central America continues to pull down prices. Daily Expreso confirmed along with exporters that the amount paid by spot producers per box is up to $ 3.50.

Ecuadorian authorities still need to define the new price of the 43 pound box of fruit, so far it is $ 6.55. According to the specialized website Freshplaza, multinationals are increasingly opting for bananas of Guatemala, Nicaragua and Mexico.
