Import Melon

 

Three import melons, one quality message. 

Mello Sweet honeydew, Melo-Glow watermelon and CantaGold cantaloupes are naturally sweet, refreshingly juicy and always delicious melons harvested through the winter/spring seasons. These superior tasting, exclusive fruits not only stay fresher longer, but they are sourced by small farmers in Honduras and Guatemala. 

Many of these farmers have been harvesting for a lifetime, and these melons speak of generations of innovation. The Import Melon program began with CantaGold, a variety of melon that farmers boasted a soft pulp, delicious taste and unique aroma, color and flavor to make the perfect melon. 

The Sol Group invests in these local farmers and their communities by providing off-season sources of income, education and health programs. You can learn more about Sol, its farmers and the melons they produce by watching this video

Melo-Glow is the newest melon to hit the market from our partners at Topco and Sol. This special import mini watermelon rounds out the Import Melon program with a high quality crisp that can withstand shipping and handling. Distinctively juicy, this melon took years with the best research and development specialists in Central America to create. 

Melo-Glow mini-watermelons are harvested in the fertile regions of Zacapa, Chiquimula and Asuncion Mita Guatemala, as well as in the higher elevation growing regions of Ojo de Agua and Cholucteca Honduras.
