Today 2025
ASOPROGUAN is today a model of community organisation driving sustainable development in northern Ecuador.
«I am part of the fourth generation of Helados Rosalía Suárez, a tradition born in Ibarra and still alive today at the Equator line with our paila ice creams. For us the quality of the raw material is sacred, and that is why we choose soursop from Imbabura.»
