Agri-Tour in Honduras

Laura McNamara

Business leaders in Honduras are boasting that their country is a country ripe for foreign investment, especially American investment. Honduras’ Foundation for Investment and Export Development is hosting an “agri-tour” of sorts, showcasing what the tropical, Central American country has to offer to U.S. agricultural investors. I’m fortunate enough to be ZimmComm’s representative on the trip. I’ll be getting a first-hand look at Honduras’ only brewery, a cocoa processing plant, a crocodile farm, a Tilapia fish farm and much more.

Honduras’ agricultural appeal was apparent even before we landed. During our descent into the country’s industrial capital, San Pedro Sula, I spied acres of cultivated farmland. I could positively identify the sugarcane from my aerial view. I’m looking forward to learning about all the other crops I caught a glimpse of from the air. So, look for more posts from Central America these next few days.
