HISTORY OF SCENTS

For the period from 1993 to 1994, according to data obtained by the Department of Agriculture, there is a production of 280,000 quintals of coffee in Puerto Rico. These figures fell drastically for the year 2017. That year, only 65,924 coffee beans were produced. On September 20, 2017, Puerto Rico experienced a catastrophic event, Hurricane Maria, which in Its wake significantly destroyed the entire crop just in the month that the coffee harvest is carried out in Puerto Rico. This event affected the agriculture, the economy and the work of many years that our farmers invested in raising their crops. In order to promote new business opportunities for Puerto Rico and impact this agricultural sector of the country, the company Scents of Puerto Rico L.L.C. is created. Our corporate purpose is to establish a prosperous alliance with Puerto Rican companies, foster the growth of our agriculture, create new jobs, and take our high-quality products abroad.

Scents of Puerto Rico L.L.C. was established on August 20, 2019 with the purpose of starting operations in early November 2020. Our approach is to establish a distribution center for coffee and / or other products with the purpose of exporting Internationally, using the “E-Commerce” platform. This platform allows us to sell the products through electronic systems such as applications and web pages. Our system simplifles accessibility so that the consumer can get Puerto Rican products. We are going to specialize in providing an excellent service with the highest quality of Puerto Rico products. Among the Puerto Rican products that we have considered exporting are: coffee, chocolate, honey and green tea, among others.
