B Is for B-Corp and Bananas!
Delight Conscious Consumers with Our Banana Ingredients
Welcome to a world where tradition meets taste and sustainability. Our Gros Michel banana ingredients deliver the rich, creamy flavor of a classic heirloom variety while supporting regenerative organic practices and smallholder farmers.
Heirloom variety: Gros Michel offers a sweet, creamy taste with balanced sugars and acids, subtle notes of vanilla and tropical fruit, and naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Regenerative Organic Certified®: Our banana purees and dried fruit support practices such as composting, intercropping, and reforestation that care for soil, climate, and farming communities.
Smallholder farmers: Every batch reflects the work of farmers whose regenerative practices strengthen their communities and connect their harvests with international markets through Sol Organica’s direct-trade model.
Explore our banana ingredients: banana puree, dried banana, IQF banana, green banana flour, and banana peel powder.

From Farm to Finished Ingredient
Our bananas grow in the nutrient-dense soils of Northern Nicaragua. Farmers use legumes, agroforestry, compost, and other regenerative methods to build biodiversity and improve soil health.
Regenerative Practice: Coffee–Banana Intercropping
Bananas provide shade for coffee, help reduce heat stress, improve soil structure and water retention, diversify farm income, and increase carbon sequestration compared with monocultures.
