The basic concept for our company (PDN) was born in the year 2006 as we looked for a solution for the loss of the guava harvest in our region. The largest challenge we found in processing guavas was the job of extracting the small seeds that the fruit has, in a practical manner. Our next step was to design a machine that would extract the seeds fron raw guavas. By the end of 2008 we had our prototype functioning and we started the construction of a small factoy designed specially for processing the guava sauce.
On the 1st of April of 2009 we had our inauguration and in the next 8 monthes we processed 10 metric tons of guava. We now have a capacity of 40 metric tons a year.
At present we process 3 types of products:
a) Guava Suace/puree that is our principal product which we package in 450 gr vacuum packed bags with pasturized guava pulp
b) Candied Guava ATES (chewable candies). These are sold as natural, with chile spice or with chocolate
c) Liquid guava paste (sweetened) for baking and for making guava ice cream
All our products have the seeds extracted and are made with only top quality guavas
