Merca Panamá
Description
A wholesale market network in Panama connecting local producers with retailers and consumers through efficient cold-chain logistics and agricultural distribution. Operations span a central wholesale hub in Panama City, regional markets in David and Chitré, and post-harvest handling centers in Dolega, Cerro Punta, El Ejido, and Volcán. Services include quality controls, batch tracking, supplier audits, and home delivery, ensuring food safety and traceability from harvest to point of sale. Commercial space rentals, product-specific areas (watermelon, melon, pineapple, plantains), and on-site dining add practical value for vendors and buyers. An educational component supports training, academic visits, and sustainable practices across the supply chain.
