  Chiquita Brands International is a leading global producer, marketer, and
  distributor of bananas and other fresh produce, recognized worldwide by
  the iconic Blue Sticker on its bananas. Founded in 1899 as the United
  Fruit Company and rebranded as Chiquita in 1990, the company is
  headquartered in Etoy, Switzerland (with significant operations in
  Fort Lauderdale, Florida) and sources fruit from plantations across
  Latin America (Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and
  Ecuador) for distribution in the United States, Europe, and other
  markets. Beyond core Cavendish bananas, Chiquita markets specialty
  banana varieties (organic, Reds, Manzanos, Minis), plantains,
  pineapples (including the Sunburst Gold variety), and partners with
  retailers worldwide. Chiquita does not currently publish a
  consumer-facing developer API; supplier, retailer, and grower
  integrations are managed through internal portals and bilateral EDI
  systems, and consumer-facing digital experiences focus on recipes,
  sticker collection campaigns, and retail merchandising.
