About OKO TROPICAL FOODS

Far to the east of Colombia in the eastern plains, just beside the immense Orinoquía is located the department of Vichada, the second largest in extension after the Amazonas. This green paradise of meadows, rivers and jungle with an exceptional climate creates the right environment for the production and extraction of the best quality honey. Through kilometers of hectares planted with Acacia Mangium Tree (5.1 million trees), we seek to preserve our natural resources and improve the quality of the soils that will allow the existence of productive crops, guaranteeing sustainable environmental development and promoting the conservation of biodiversity for future generations. Unlike sugar and other sweeteners, honey is a food that contains hundreds of antioxidant properties, vitamins such as B, C, D and E and numerous minerals such as iron, copper, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc and manganese. Additionally, honey doesn’t require any industrial transformation process, after harvesting it receives a small filtering process to later be packaged from the honeycomb to the table.Read their story
