MD-2 Pineapple Supplier & Exporter
Dulce Tropical, S.A. is an MD-2 pineapple grower, packer, and exporter supplying fresh Golden pineapple to international wholesale buyers. We manage the product from planting programs and harvest scheduling through grading, packing, phytosanitary inspection, and refrigerated export — so importers work with one integrated supplier instead of a chain of intermediaries.
Programs are structured per buyer: caliber mix, color stage, Brix floor, packaging, palletization, and shipping frequency are agreed up front and controlled lot by lot at origin. Whether you need a weekly retail program or spot containers in season, the fruit ships against a written specification.
Program capabilities
- Fresh MD-2 (Golden Extra Sweet) — calibers 5 to 10 in 14 kg export cartons
- Brix controlled at harvest: ≥ 12°, typical range 12–16°
- Pre-cooling to 7–8°C and temperature-monitored reefer containers
- Year-round availability through structured harvest scheduling
Available origin programs
Additional qualified Latin American origins are activated per program to extend seasonality, volume, and destination coverage — and are published here only once commercially verified.

Frequently asked questions
What volumes can you supply as an MD-2 pineapple supplier?
The standard unit is one 40' reefer container (~1,680 × 14 kg cartons). Structured programs run weekly or bi-weekly containers per destination; larger multi-container programs are planned against harvest scheduling.
Do you supply wholesale buyers outside of Panama’s market?
Yes — export is our core business. We ship MD-2 pineapple to importers and distributors in North America, Europe, and the Middle East, structuring each program to the destination’s import, documentation, and cold-chain requirements.
Which origin does the fruit ship from?
Our direct production and packing base is Panama (La Chorrera). Additional qualified Latin American origins can be activated per program to extend windows or volume — the origin is always stated in the program specification.
