ECUADORIAN QUINOA EXPORTERS CONSORTIUM In March 12, 2013 was the official launching of the ECUADORIAN QUINUA EXPORTERS CONSORTIUM. The consortium, comprehended of four Ecuadorian companies, produces processes and sells this ancient and nutritious Andean grain: Maquita Cushunchic MCCH, Cerales Andinos, Franco & Rogetore and Urcupac Trading SA. The aim of the consortium is to position the quinoa grain and quinoa based value-added products in key international markets.

The Consortium puts efforts to achieve recognition of the Ecuadorian quinoa through international food fairs, market research, product diversification, innovation and consolidation of export volumes in a single unified force.

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO),declared the year 2013 as the “Year of Quinoa� ,this gave the consortium a very good starting point working along with PRO ECUADOR (a governmental agency for the Promotion of Exports and Investments). This year, the consortium has participated in several international fairs and has successfully sold quinoa in the international market. The consortium is always open to different small start ups that wish to join our initiative with the idea of increasing our exports together and be able to be competitive with countries like Bolivia and Peru, where quinoa is one of their main agricultural export products.The common denominator of this consortium of SMEs is to position their products in the international market without losing its legal independence.

INAEXPO belongs to the Pronaca Group, the leading food production company in Ecuador, founded in 1957.

INAEXPO was founded in 1992 to confront the challenge of exporting Ecuadorian products worldwide. In 1994 we exported our first container of Ecuadorian hearts of palm, and a decade later, we´re doing the same with artichokes.

As a result, INAEXPO hearts of palm, harvested in the sub-tropical zones of Ecuador, have found their way to consumers throughout the Americas as well as Europe, Africa and Asia.

Benefiting from our experience with hearts of palm, we have used a similar model to produce and commercialize artichokes from Peru.

We work systematically and consistently to improve our processes in order to guarantee the delivery of high quality products to our consumers. Aligned with this philosophy, we use quality control systems that are certified by IFS (International Food Standards), HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points). Our products and processes meet the requirements of the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and the Codex Alimentary Commission.
