TRENOS SiGINT – Panama Banana Strike Disruption
A strike in Panama’s Bocas del Toro region has resulted in the loss of over 900,000 boxes of bananas, representing an export loss exceeding US$10 million. Triggered by discontent over repealed social security laws, the strike has stalled Chiquita’s operations and threatens future harvests due to crop deterioration. The event raises critical questions about export fragility and the lack of adaptive contingency systems in global fresh produce supply chains.
