Brooks Tropicals’ chayote grower makes the front page

Alberto Bonilla, director of sales for Ujarras, Costa Rica-based B&C Exportadores, made the front page of this week’s The Packer.

Alberto is show examining chayote at the company’s farm. The caption notes that during chayote’s peak season from November to February, the firm exports about 20 containers of chayote and tubers from Costa Rica to global markets. About 80% is bound for the U.S.
