Propuesta de productos alimenticios no tradicionales de fréjol

In Ecuador there are crops of different kinds of black beans, but the main ones are the Calima and caraota, the last one is known in the country as black beans, being very sought in countries like Mexico, Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela. They are produced mainly to export to European market, where demand has increased, principally because of the value that consumers provide to its nutritional value, as this product contains carbohydrates, protein, vitamins A and B, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, among others. Currently, given the greater volume and dissemination of scientific studies, such as the World Health Organization about the potential danger to health due to the consumption of sausages and red meat. Consumers are demanding greater variety of products that can be nutritious and delicious, so, being protein-rich food becomes an ideal alternative, whose market expands even those clients with special needs, and demand products without gluten and lactose, that’s why commitment to offer products derived from black beans, such as flour, biscuits and derivatives healthy (without sugar, whole, low salt or no trans-fat) have an opportunity to grow internally, but especially for export.
