By Daily Pérez Guillén

The Slovakian-Cuban company Proxcor S.A. presented its cookies, wafers and cereals at HostelCuba 2025, and announced that it expects to start its fourth production line next year, of multi-flavored candies.

With a factory equipped with state-of-the-art technology located in Caibarién, in the north-central part of the island, this joint venture has introduced this range of products in the Cuban market both through trade with state and private entities.

Zuzana Skolárová, general manager of Proxcor S.A. and Alejandro Castellanos, director of Exports and Marketing, gave HostelCuba details of each of the products.

Under the TOCO brand, in reference to the Tocororo, Cuba’s national bird, cookies flavored with vanilla, butter, chocolate and chocolate with coconut are marketed in formats ranging from 80 grams to 3 kilograms.

At the Pabexpo fairgrounds, Proxcor executives highlighted the new cookie proposal that reaches the market in a 75 gram packet, a smaller presentation that meets the high demand.

Meanwhile, lemon, strawberry and cocoa-peanut flavored wafers leave the factory in formats ranging from 45 grams to 1 kilogram.

The most recent product, excellent cereals of the Guani brand, are offered in honey, chocolate and corn (gluten-free) flavors. For commercialization, they are available in formats from 150 grams to 1 kilogram.

“With this portfolio, we are already in different channels and in all chain stores,” Castellanos said.

In an exchange with the Cuban News Agency, Skolárová announced that they already have legal certification to export from Cuba to a hundred countries. According to the executive, these products will soon be arriving in Nicaragua, Panama, Guyana, Venezuela and Bolivia.

Proxcor S.A. is the result of a merger between Proxenta, from Slovakia, and Coralsa, from Cuba.
