At Coliman Bananas, we believe in the power of bringing people together for causes that really matter. That’s why we are proud to share with you the great success of the races organized by our Don Jorge Aguilar Heredia Foundation, recently held in Tecomán and Hermosillo on the occasion of its third anniversary.

Both events brought together hundreds of participants – employees, families, athletes and the community in general – who ran not only for health and enjoyment, but also for a good cause: to continue promoting the welfare, health, education and community development programs that the Foundation carries out in different regions of the country.

The Tecomán edition was met with great enthusiasm and energy. From the very beginning, the atmosphere was filled with music, smiles and sportsmanship. Participants enjoyed 3K and 5K runs, with courses designed for all levels. The community responded with massive participation and a spirit that reaffirms our commitment to social welfare.

Hermosillo was not far behind. The race attracted runners of all ages who, as in Tecomán, ran for a cause that leaves its mark. The participation was exemplary, and the event was carried out with joy, safety and camaraderie.

These achievements would not have been possible without the support of the large family of Coliman Bananas, collaborators, volunteers and sponsors who believe in the impact of the Don Jorge Aguilar Heredia Foundation. Every step taken in these races is another step towards stronger, healthier and more united communities.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to those who participated in this special edition and we invite you to continue participating in the activities of our Foundation, because when we run with purpose, we go further.

At Coliman Bananas, we value and celebrate the traditions that are part of our cultural identity. This year, with great enthusiasm, we organized the Altar de Muertos Contest during the month of November, an event that not only honors our deceased loved ones, but also promotes creativity, teamwork and community spirit among our employees.

The main objective of the contest was to keep alive this beautiful Mexican tradition, which is an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Employees organized themselves into teams and used their ingenuity and creativity to create unique and meaningful altars. Each altar told a story that reflected the cultural roots and values we share as a Coliman team.

During the event, we were able to admire the care and dedication with which each team recreated the essential elements of a traditional altar: photographs, candles, marigolds, papel picado and ofrendas. Innovative details that highlighted the originality and talent of our collaborators were also included.

The jury, made up of representatives from different areas, had the difficult task of choosing the winners. Taking into account aspects such as creativity, design, respect for tradition and the message conveyed, the winning teams were as follows

First place: Team from Candelaria, Tecomán, Colima.

Second place: Team from Tapachula, Chiapas.

Third place: Tie between the Palenque team and the Logistics team, both in Tecomán, Colima.

These types of activities are essential to strengthen the bonds between our employees and to remember the importance of preserving our traditions. At Coliman Bananas, we are committed not only to excellence in our work, but also to the promotion of cultural values that enrich our community.

Thank you to everyone who participated and made this contest a memorable event! Let’s continue to work together to keep our traditions and spirit of unity alive.

Coliman Bananas was present at the Global Produce & Floral Show of the International Fresh Produce Association (IFPA) in Atlanta, Georgia. This event, one of the most important in the produce industry, brings together thousands of experts, buyers and industry leaders to exchange ideas, strengthen relationships and discover the latest trends in the global produce and floral market.

This event gives us the opportunity to consolidate our presence in the international market, especially in the United States, one of the main destinations for our organic and conventional bananas. During the event, we sought to strengthen strategic alliances and explore new markets to support our global growth.

Our commitment to sustainability was one of the central pillars of our participation. Coliman Bananas continues to innovate in responsible agricultural practices, such as optimizing water and energy use. In addition, our certifications such as Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance underscore our efforts to reduce our environmental impact.

Our commitment is a manifestation of our long-term vision: to continue to grow, innovate and deliver products that improve the lives of our consumers and the well-being of our planet. As we connect with new business partners and strengthen our existing relationships, we also look to a future where sustainability, innovation and quality continue to be the pillars of our success.
