Guatemalan papayas are heading for Europe

Guatemala is an important producer of papaya, which it mainly exports to North America. Very few of the country's producers export to Europe, as the long transit times by sea affect the maturity of the fruits and transport by air is too expensive.

Hence, this exotic fruit is less well known in the European market. However, according to Thomas Dieke, the commercial director of the Anisa G & P company, that could change in the future.
