Five Peruvian companies attending Expo Comida Latina in Chicago (US) generated US $900,000 in preliminary sales contracts, reported the Lima's Chamber of Commerce (CCL).

Despite the preliminary sales have not met the initial projection due to the global crisis, the attending clients have expressed interest in distributing Hispanic products in the American market.

This expo was is a good opportunity to present Peruvian products such as passion fruit juices, mango, quinoa, kiwicha, pastas, chili sauce, dehydrated chilies, tamales, rice with canned beans and of course “chicha morada” (the typical beverage, made of boiled purple corn).

The participating companies were: Gloria, Alisur, AGN Inversiones, Chef Natural and Turmanye Foods.
