Ecuador, we want to spread the love for the awesome power of plantain, via our sustainably produced plantain chips, while supporting our farmers and their local communities in Ecuador. After meeting and forming a fantastic partnership with local farmers in Portoviejo, Ecuador, we decided, early on, to keep the production of our plantain chips local too, helping to support the local economy and provide employment to the local area. We also discovered and fell in love with a local orphanage, Casa Hogar de Belen, which provides a safe haven for local Ecuadorian children who’ve suffered severe trauma.

History tells us that plantains are indigenous to equator-bordering lands in Southeast Asia. Spanish and African slave traders brought the fruit with them to the Caribbean on slave ships. Plantains proved to be a cheap and filling provision for enslaved men and women. The abundance of plantains and their versatility made them the staple ingredient that they are today. Green plantains can become salty and savory tostones, chips, mashed mangú, a sculptural mofongo, and even add dimension to stews. But how did plantain become the tenth-most staple food in the world, shaping the Caribbean and Latin America along the way?
