Leading Distributors of Fine Produce

Panama Banana

As we approach 100 years, Panama has built a solid reputation as one of the leading Distributors of Fine Produce. With detailed attention to customer service and adherence to high quality standards, our company has grown from a small family business into a full-line distributor of produce for delivery throughout the U.S. We serve customers through our distribution channels with the same focus: a passion for freshness, quality, and ease of doing business that is second to none. Today, Panama is housed in a state-of-the-art facility that offers ripening rooms, cold coolers, climate-control docks that maintain the cold chain throughout the entire process of unloading and reloading, produce packaging and repacking with plastic-free clipped bags, and logistics.

We are proud to carry on the legacy and values established by our grandfather Tom Pappas in 1925 and we are sure that our company will continue to thrive for many years to come.

Our Amazing Team.
