TROPIC goes beyond trade

We are leading a pioneering initiative to provide ethical and sustainable sourcing certification to plantain and dragon fruit producers in:

• Ecuador

• Guatemala

• El Salvador

• Costa Rica

Through training, audits, and community engagement, we support producers in meeting rigorous standards in:

• Environmental sustainability

• Fair labor practices

• Public health and safety

• Community well-being

This initiative empowers small farmers — particularly women and indigenous growers — to access global markets while preserving their local cultures and lands.
