Description of activity
Producer of fine-aroma Ecuadorian chocolate with vertical integration from farm to factory.
La QUINTA crafts chocolate starting from family-cultivated Ecuadorian cacao in the canton of Las Naves (Bolívar province) through selection, treatment and processing in Guaranda. The operation emphasizes continuity of cultivation and on-site processing to convert locally grown fine-aroma cacao into high-quality chocolate products.
Key points:
- Heritage and sourcing: family cultivation of national fine-aroma cacao in Las Naves since 1950.
- Manufacturing: selection, treatment and processing carried out in Guaranda (bean-to-bar processing from locally sourced cacao beans).
- Operations: maintains a production facility and a local retail outlet in Guaranda.
- Product fit: supplies finished chocolate and processed cocoa products made from Ecuadorian fine-aroma cacao, appropriate for chocolatiers, specialty food producers, and gourmet retailers seeking high-quality cocoa origins.
Value proposition:
- Direct control of the supply chain from cultivation to chocolate processing supports traceability and consistent raw material quality.
- Long-standing local experience with fine-aroma cacao cultivation indicates deep knowledge of the crop and regional varietals.
For B2B buyers evaluating partnerships, La QUINTA presents a vertically integrated supplier of Ecuadorian fine-aroma cacao products, positioned to provide origin-specific chocolate and processed cocoa ingredients derived from Las Naves cacao.
