Rambutan ripening on the tree
The fruit of the slow-growing mangosteen
Longan ripening and filling in with complex flavors
The durian. Infamous, odiferous and to many, delicious!
The four fruits above are the main tree fruit crops grown at the Panoramic Fruit Company. The mangosteen is sold out indefinitely. In 2010, there will be wholesale quantities of longan, pulasan and abiu. See Coming in 2010 for more on this.
Introduction
Panoramic Fruit Company is an exotic fruit farm located in western Puerto Rico. We started in 1994 and after many trials and numerous errors we are now supplying rambutan and other fruits in wholesale quantities. Starting in the Summer of 2003, we had our first rambutan harvest available for sale to wholesalers. The quantities continue to rise each year as the last trees to be planted come into production and the older trees increase their yield.
Please direct wholesale inquiries to wholesale@panoramicfruit.com or call Robert Luciano at (787) 672-2134.
Rambutan is available to interested wholesale buyers on other islands in the Caribbean. The logistics of this need to be worked out but for some islands, this could be the first time that fresh high quality rambutan has ever been available. Contact us at wholesale@panoramicfruit.com for additional information. Also see the Current Availability page and the Coming in 2010 page for more information.
Foreign customers can obtain a USDA transit permit that allows us to ship from Puerto Rico through JFK or Newark or any non-citrus producing state and onwards to any international buyer outside the US. From there, rambutan can be shipped to Britain or Japan or the Bahamas. To reach the Caribbean islands, rambutan can be shipped to directly from San Juan and fruit can be picked and on its way in 48 hours. Inquiries welcomed!
There is some durian available in August through September each year. This will be posted on the Current Availability page. Also see Coming in 2010.
The longan will be the next fruit to appear in steadily increasing quantities. This is a somewhat fragile tree so I am hoping to see some fruit this year but any mild wind storm could change this outcome for the worst.
