Alex Kontos Fruit Company started in 1888 with simple beginnings distributing bananas. Alex Kontos, an immigrant from Greece, founded his company based on a love for the business, commitment to quality, and customer satisfaction. Alex Kontos Fruit Company is still family owned and operated and currently in the hands of its third and fourth generation owners.
