Leveraging Guatemala’s rich banana resources—rooted in the country’s historic “banana republic” agricultural heritage—a local agri-processing company specializing in banana chips is expanding its operations. Supplying supermarkets across Central America and neighboring markets, the company is now seeking a continuous banana chip production line with a capacity of 100 kg/h to meet growing demand and enhance production efficiency.
A certain agricultural product processing enterprise in Guatemala, leveraging the abundant banana resources in the region (which aligns with the local “Banana Republic” industrial foundation), mainly produces banana chips and supplies them to local and surrounding country supermarkets. They require a continuous 100kg/h banana chip production line.
Core requirements: Continuous processing mode, addressing the problem of banana slices oxidizing and turning brown, meeting the food hygiene standards and electrical regulations of Guatemala, compatible with the local three-phase 220V/60Hz power grid, budget of 70,000 US dollars, completing production, customs declaration and shipment within 30 days, assisting with customs clearance and CO origin certificate, providing training and one-year after-sales service. We offer a customized continuous solution covering all stages from cleaning, slicing, color protection, frying, oil removal, and packaging. It is made of SUS304 stainless steel, with a quotation of 60,000 US dollars (FOB terms).
The details of the plan and the price are all fully in line with the client’s budget. After all the negotiations were completed, the client specially traveled from Guatemala to visit our factory for on-site machine testing. They conducted on-site tests to evaluate the processing efficiency of the batch, the color and taste of the banana chips, and the stability of the equipment operation. After the test, the client was extremely satisfied with the equipment quality and our professional services. They signed a formal export contract on the spot. After the signing, we took the initiative to assist the client in exchanging RMB, invited the client to have dinner together, accompanied the client to go shopping to select special products, and also led the client to visit some classic scenic spots in Henan Province. This allowed the client to personally experience the charm of Chinese traditional culture, further narrowing the distance between our cooperation.
