The Andean Sunfruit
Grown at the center of the world, our fruit benefits from direct perpendicular sunlight year-round—nature's secret to superior sweetness and vibrant color. At Zumanel, we connect this richness of the Ecuadorian volcanic soil with the global market.
But our commitment goes beyond the harvest. We work directly with local farmers under fair trade principles to ensure quality and consistency. While Golden Berry (Uvilla) is our signature product, our strong agricultural network allows us to source other Andean treasures to meet your especific needs.
