We're excited to announce our global partnership with Illumination for the highly anticipated release of Despicable Me 4, arriving in cinemas worldwide on July 3! The Minions have always been bananas for bananas, and this summer, Chiquita is celebrating that love with our fun and vibrant new campaign, highlighting the Minions' banana-filled adventures and our 'peeling good' philosophy. Get ready for a bunch of exciting surprises to make this summer extra special. Stay tuned for more Despicable Me and banana fun heading your way!

We are proud to announce our two-year collaboration with the Instituto Nacional de Aprendizaje (INA), a prestigious technical learning institute in Costa Rica. This partnership offers students the opportunity to gain practical training on our farms in key areas such as quality, maintenance, and production, following the German model of "alternation." By splitting their time between theoretical classes and hands-on experience, students will complete their certification with a unique and valuable addition to traditional education. Upon graduating, top-performing students will have the chance to work with us at Chiquita. This initiative is a significant step forward for the development of the villages around our farms. It provides an alternative path to obtaining a formal certificate backed by the government, contributing to community development and sustainable farming. We are humbled by the opportunity to invest in education and community development and are excited to soon extend this program to our farms in Panama. Stay tuned for more updates! #Education #CommunityDevelopment #SustainableFarming #TechnicalTraining

To all the inspiring mothers who uplift and nurture, thank you for your unwavering support and love. You truly make the world a better place! 💐 #MothersDay #MissChiquita

What a fantastic Bring Your Child to Work Day at Chiquita! 🍌 Our chiquitos and chiquitas had a blast seeing firsthand the dedication and hard work their parents put into making our company culture so special. They visited our ripening center in Port Everglades, learning all about the journey of bananas from farm to lunch box – their excitement was contagious! The highlight? Watching them get creative by designing their own marketing campaigns. The future of Chiquita looks bright with these young minds! Thank you to all the parents and our internal teams who made this day unforgettable. It's moments like these that remind us why our work matters and how we're building a legacy for future generations of bananeros. #FutureLeaders #BringYourChildToWorkDay #CompanyCulture
