The Food Service industry has suffered immensely due to closure of restaurants / bars, plus the suspension of the cruise industry, cultural, and sporting events, etc.  This has been particularly difficult for us because it consists of roughly 20% of our  movement and Food Service generally takes small-sized fruit which supermarkets do not purchase in great volume.

El coronavirus llegó cuando el mundo se estaba adoptando cada vez más a la economía en línea, y el día que tuvimos que quedarnos en casa marcó un punto de inflexión en las conductas de consumo. Al principio hubo cautela, pero enseguida empezaron a repuntar las compras electrónicas, sobre todo en los rubros de alimentos, farmacia, productos de limpieza, entretenimiento y conectividad.
