Miami-based banana supplier Kapi Kapi Growers is showcasing its new Kapi Baby Oro Pineapples at this year’s International Fresh Produce Association Global Produce & Floral Show in Anaheim, Calif.

Kapi Kapi Growers has been working on the launch of this product for the last year, officially introducing the line in August 2023, according to a news release.

The Kapi Baby Oro Pineapple is available in North America and Europe, providing shoppers with the combined convenience of an easy-to-carry size and a portion-friendly serving of fresh, nutritious fruit, the release said, adding that Baby Oros are also gaining appeal for their consistent sweetness.

 “We pride ourselves on being an innovator in the pineapple category and look forward to being a leader of quality new product development in this space,” Sofia Acon, president of Kapi Kapi Growers, said in the release. “We’re eager to showcase our new fun-sized development at the show and create new business opportunities that grow both our pineapple and banana programs.”

Kapi Kapi Growers will showcase both crown and crownless versions of the Kapi Baby Oro Pineapple at the IFPA show, the release said. The company also will highlight the latest in its sustainability initiatives.

Show attendees can visit booth No. 2441 for more information or contact sales@kapigrowers.com.

“We look forward to being face-to-face again with our partners and building new meaningful connections,” Acon said. “With the new product launch and our recent case study with IFPA, this year’s show is going to be very special to the Kapi Kapi team.”
