Pineapple is grown commercially in Guatemala, primarily in the Pacific lowlands of Escuintla and Retalhuleu. Fresh pineapple is sold whole or pre-cut at markets and by street vendors. It is eaten fresh, juiced, or used in traditional drinks like fresco de pina. Guatemala exports pineapple but domestic consumption is also significant, keeping local prices reasonable.
