Thanks for checking in for our latest update! This one is huge: Dax Cooke, La Dona’s Head of Global Sales, was out in Panama last week where he met up with Paul Vergara, our Director of Pineapple Operations and son of our founder Edna, to perform a full audit on our pineapple plantations in La Chorrera!
