Coliman Bananas - Coliman Bananas

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.

At Coliman Bananas, our Fairtrade certification is not only a mark of quality and fair trade, but also a commitment to sustainability, respect for workers’ rights and building a better future for our communities.

Thanks to this certification, we have generated important benefits that have had a positive impact on both the economic and socio-cultural levels, especially in Tecomán, Colima, a key region for our production.

Promoting socio-cultural development

In Tecomán, we have allocated funds from Fairtrade premiums to projects that strengthen the social fabric and improve the quality of life of families. Among the most outstanding achievements are

Education for the future: building and improving educational infrastructure, scholarships and training programs for young people.

Promoting Culture and Sports: Supporting cultural and sporting events that contribute to the integral development of communities.

Health and wellness: Health campaigns, access to medical consultations and activities that promote physical and emotional well-being.

A Fairtrade model.

Fairtrade certification guarantees that our operations comply with strict labor standards, ensuring dignified conditions for our workers. It also allows us to promote fairness in our supply chains, fostering fairer and more sustainable relationships with our trading partners.

This model not only benefits those who work with us, but also creates a ripple effect in the communities where we operate.

Working together for a sustainable future.

We believe that the positive impact of our actions goes beyond the field. By choosing Fairtrade certified products, our customers become allies of change, contributing directly to projects that transform lives in regions like Tecomán.

We will continue to work with passion and commitment, knowing that every effort adds up to building stronger communities and a fairer planet.
