Luis Nuques

Luis Nuques is an independent producer and land lessee for Chiquita Brands in Bocas del Toro, Panama. He has been vocal about the devastating impact of the ongoing banana workers' strike on the region's economy, likening the situation to an economic catastrophe. With over a month of protests leading to halted banana production, Nuques warns of long-term consequences and the potential departure of Chiquita Brands from the area, which could further exacerbate the already high poverty rates and unemployment in the province.
