DiMuto says it is strategically expanding its operations in Mexico, gaining traction in the fresh strawberries and dry vegetables sector.

Partnering with a top global produce distributor in the U.S., DiMuto is poised to digitally transform the fresh produce supply chain with its trade management solutions, according to a news release. Building on its three core pillars — Trade Management, Marketplace, and Financial Services — DiMuto said it continues to advance its artificial intelligence-powered marketplace.

Over the next few months, the company said it will aim to digitize, track and facilitate the movement of over $3 million worth of fresh produce including cucumbers, bell peppers and strawberries from Mexico into the U.S. The development reinforces DiMuto’s mission to redefine global agri-trade, enhancing transparency, traceability and operational efficiency while promoting sustainability across the supply chain, according to the release.

“At DiMuto, we are committed to transforming the way supply chains operate,” Ruben Alan Tapia, head of corporate development Latin America at DiMuto and member of the International Fresh Produce Association Supply Chain Council, said in the release. “Our expansion in Mexico reflect our ongoing dedication on enhancing the capabilities of our partners in this vital market. We aim to equip them with technological tools foster resilience in a complex environment while driving sustainability through greater transparency and collaboration across the supply chain.”

Leveraging AI and data-driven insights, DiMuto said it streamlines complex cross-border trade processes to help ensure better outcomes for both growers and buyers.

DiMuto said its AI-powered solution addresses the growing demand for compliance with food safety and traceability regulations. The company provides real-time visibility across the supply chain, enhancing communication among all stakeholders, and significantly reducing such inefficiencies.

DiMuto has been actively facilitating the export of exotic fruits from Latin America to the Asia Pacific, including yellow pitahaya and granadilla from Ecuador, mangoes from Colombia, as well as blueberries from Argentina and Ecuador, the release said. The produce has been digitized and tracked on the DiMuto Platform, reaching markets such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore under the company’s private label.
