DiMuto announced the strategic expansion of its operations in Mexico, gaining traction in the fresh strawberries and dry vegetables sector. Partnering with global produce distributor in the United States, DiMuto is poised to digitally transform the fresh produce supply. Building on its three core pillars – Trade Management, Marketplace and Financial Services – DiMuto continues to advance its AI-powered Marketplace. Over the next few months, the company aims to digitize, track, and facilitate the movement of over US$3 million worth of fresh produce including cucumbers, bell peppers, and strawberries from Mexico into the United States.
As DiMuto expands its footprint in the US, it arrives at a crucial time when compliance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) is becoming increasingly stringent. The FSMA enforces rigorous traceability standards, requiring the collection and documentation of Key Data Elements (KDEs) at Critical Tracking Events (CTEs) across the supply chain. DiMuto’s AI -powered platform is equipped to meet these requirements, addressing the growing demand for compliance with these regulations.
Global supply chains for perishable goods often face inefficiencies and poor visibility, leading to costly disputes and product rejections. Research from the MIT Centre for Transportation & Logistics in 2024 revealed that 30% of global shipments suffer delivery failures due to inadequate logistics visibility. DiMuto addresses these challenges by providing real-time visibility across the supply chain, enhancing communication among all stakeholders, and significantly reducing such inefficiencies.
DiMuto has been facilitating the export of exotic fruits from Latin America to the Asia Pacific. Products include yellow pitahaya and granadilla from Ecuador, mangoes from Colombia, as well as blueberries from Argentina and Ecuador have been digitized and tracked on the DiMuto Platform, and successfully reaching Asian markets such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore under the company’s private label. This established presence in Latin America positions DiMuto as a partner in facilitating cross-border trade between the region and key global markets.
“At DiMuto, we are committed to transforming the way supply chains operate,” said Ruben Alan Tapia, Head of Corporate Development Latin America at DiMuto and member of the International Fresh Produce Association (IFPA) Supply Chain Council. “Our expansion in Mexico reflect our ongoing dedication on enhancing the capabilities of our partners in this vital market. We aim to equip them with technological tools foster resilience in a complex environment, while driving sustainability through greater transparency and collaboration across the supply chain.”
