Ayco Farms is entering into a new pineapple venture with one of the largest pineapple growers in Costa Rica. The venture will now allow the Costa Rican grower to provide product to consumers in the U.S. under the Ayco brand.



“Our pineapple program is based on year-round supply, contracts, and promotional volume for retailers in the foodservice industry,” said Ayco CEO Avi Nir. “Additionally, our pineapples have a guaranteed brix of no less than 13 percent. Ayco stands behind this quality commitment.”

Ayco’s pineapples out of Costa Rica meet the highest standards including traceability and Rainforest Alliance, according to a press release. “Our assurance to our customers is to provide the sweetest, highest quality pineapples,” added Nir. “We encourage retailers to ask for a sampling. Our pineapples are superior product – not something seen every day on retail shelves.”



Studies show that pineapples aid digestive problems, boost the immune system, stave off vision loss, and contain beneficial fiber and Vitamin C, says Nir. With this knowledge, Ayco hopes its new pineapple program will allow the company to provide consistent value to its customers and give retailers a remarkable product to promote.

The new pineapple program is a result of Ayco’s logistics advantages. Currently, Ayco transports the entire pineapple supply to its distribution center in Florida, but it has the ability to set up programs to other locations.

I look forward to seeing these new pineapples from Ayco!
