Pineapple is the third most economically important fruit crop worldwide, after banana and mango. The largest producers are Costa Rica, the Philippines, Brazil and Thailand, which together amount to nearly 50% of total world production. In Africa, Nigeria leads, but Kenya is also an important producer, and one of the main contributors to the 19.8% pineapple global production that Africa exports.
