The banana industry is facing an unprecedented crisis, and prices are set to skyrocket! 🍌 In this video, I break down the shocking closure of the world’s largest banana company, Chaita Banana in Panama, and what it means for global banana prices, the local economy, and workers' livelihoods. Civil unrest, strikes, and pensions have all played a role in this collapse, leaving entire towns devastated and the future of this staple fruit uncertain.
From the $75 million losses to the ripple effects on logistics, farming, and exports, this situation is a wake-up call. What happens when a multinational company shuts down operations and communities are left to pick up the pieces? We’re diving into how this impacts everything from workout snacks to international trade. Get ready for bananas to become a luxury item—this is just the beginning of a much bigger issue.

Its administrative team also exited the country as of early June, effectively ceasing all corporate functions in Bocas del Toro
Chiquita cited at least $75 million in losses from the extensive strike and operational disruptions
The strike began over proposed pension reforms that banana workers viewed as undermining hard‑won benefits
A Panamanian labor court declared the strike illegal, justifying mass layoffs by the company
The government imposed a state of emergency and suspended constitutional rights in Bocas del Toro to restore order after protests turned destructive
Banana exports account for over 17 % of Panama’s foreign sales, making the loss of Chiquita a major economic blow
