SEQP: Delivering Farm to the Table Florida Grown Açaí
Santana Equestrian Private Financial (OTCID:SEQP) has announced a pioneering initiative to cultivate çí palms in Canal Point, Florida, aiming to establish the first domestic çí production in the United States. The company will leverage its proprietary Ǵپܳ� organic soil technology to replicate Amazon-like growing conditions.
The strategic pilot program aims to solve a critical market challenge: fresh çí berries are currently "almost impossible to obtain" outside Brazil due to rapid degradation within 24 hours of harvest. By growing çí locally, SEQP could potentially eliminate the need for freezing, long-distance shipping, and preservatives, offering American consumers unprecedented "tree-to-bowl" fresh çí products.
Santana Equestrian Private Financial (OTCID:SEQP) ha annunciato un'iniziativa pionieristica per coltivare palme da çí a Canal Point, Florida, con l'obiettivo di avviare la prima produzione nazionale di çí negli Stati Uniti. L'azienda sfrutterà la sua tecnologia del suolo organico proprietaria Ǵپܳ� per ricreare condizioni di crescita simili a quelle amazzoniche.
Il programma pilota strategico mira a risolvere una criticità di mercato: le bacche di çí fresche sono attualmente «quasi impossibili da reperire» al di fuori del Brasile a causa della loro rapida degradazione entro 24 ore dalla raccolta. Coltivando çí a livello locale, SEQP potrebbe eliminare la necessità di congelamento, spedizioni a lunga distanza e conservanti, offrendo ai consumatori americani prodotti di çí freschi senza precedenti «dall'albero alla ciotola».

Santana Equestrian Private Financial (OTCID:SEQP) hat eine wegweisende Initiative zur Kultivierung von Açaí-Palmen in Canal Point, Florida, angekündigt, mit dem Ziel, die erste inländische Açaí-Produktion in den Vereinigten Staaten aufzubauen. Das Unternehmen wird seine proprietäre organische Bodentechnologie Ǵپܳ� nutzen, um amazonentypische Wachstumsbedingungen nachzuahmen.
Das strategische Pilotprogramm zielt darauf ab, ein drängendes Marktproblem zu lösen: Frische Açaí-Beeren sind derzeit außerhalb Brasiliens aufgrund ihrer schnellen Verderblichkeit innerhalb von 24 Stunden nach der Ernte 'beinahe unmöglich zu bekommen'. Durch lokalen Anbau könnte SEQP das Einfrieren, den Ferntransport und den Einsatz von Konservierungsstoffen überflüssig machen und amerikanischen Verbrauchern beispiellose 'vom Baum in die Schüssel' frische Açaí-Produkte anbieten.

- Proprietary Ǵپܳ� soil technology demonstrates practical application
- Strategic expansion into high-value superfood market
- Sustainable approach with reduced transportation emissions and local farming partnerships
- Early-stage pilot with no revenue projections
- Success depends on unproven ability to replicate Amazon growing conditions
- High operational risk due to çí's sensitive growing requirements
- Uncertain timeline to commercial viability
The çí palm (Euterpe oleracea) - native to the Amazon - produces dark purple berry clusters highly prized in the food and beverage industry.
WELLINGTON, FL / / August 14, 2025 / Santana Equestrian Private Financial (OTCID:SEQP)
Background
Euterpe oleracea, commonly known as çí, is a palm tree originating in the Amazon rainforest. Its berry has exploded in popularity as a superfood in the American market, appearing in smoothies, bowls, supplements, and skincare. The United States is now one of the dominant consumers of çí, with rising import volumes and çí-based products flooding shelves.
However, fresh çí fruit is almost never available outside its native region because it degrades rapidly after harvest. Within 24 hours, berries lose nutrients and begin to spoil, forcing producers to flash-freeze, puree, or dry the pulp for export. American consumers typically only access çí in frozen or powder form-truly fresh fruit is "almost impossible to obtain" outside Brazil. Freezing and preservatives add cost, complexity, and can diminish the fruit's natural qualities.

Pilot Program Overview
Seeing an opportunity to deliver fresher, higher-quality çí to U.S. consumers, Santana Equestrian Private Financial (SEQP) is launching a pilot cultivation program in Canal Point, Florida. SEQP's Soil Division will partner with local agricultural farmers to adapt the Brazilian çí palm to Florida's environment with the goal of establishing a home grown, fully organic çí supply.
A key to this initiative is SEQP's proprietary Ǵپܳ� soil-an organic fertilizer and soil enhancer developed from equestrian waste composting-engineered to improve soil fertility and carbon content. By rehabilitating and fortifying Florida soil with BioActivium, SEQP aims to replicate the nutrient-rich conditions of the Amazon floodplains in which çí palms thrive. Similar agricultural trials in Hawaii found that matching Amazonian soil nutrients was essential for successfully fruiting çí palms outside their native habitat.

to support çí palm adaptation and growth.
Strategic Significance
If successful, the pilot will make it possible to deliver farm-to-consumer çí grown in the USA-eliminating the need for freezing, long-distance shipping, and chemical preservatives. Fresh, U.S.-grown çí could provide unmatched "tree-to-bowl" quality in organic beverages, appealing to the health food and functional beverage sectors.
Domestic cultivation would also:
Reduce transportation emissions
Strengthen local agriculture partnerships
Diversify SEQP's high-value crop portfolio
Showcase BioActivium's ability to convert nutrient-poor land into fertile farmland

these conditions in Florida for the first time at scale.
Açaí Cultivation Pilot Initiative in Florida

Background: Euterpe oleracea, commonly known as çí, is a palm tree originating in the Amazon rainforest. Its berry has exploded in popularity as a superfood in the American market, found in everything from smoothies and bowls to supplements and skincare. The United States is now one of the dominant consumers of çí, with import volumes rising and çí-based products flooding shelves to meet demand. However, fresh çí fruit is almost never available outside its native region because it degrades rapidly after picking. Within a day of harvest, çí berries lose nutrients and turn rancid, so producers must flash-freeze, puree, or dry the pulp immediately for export. This means American consumers typically get çí in frozen or powder form, as truly fresh fruit "is almost impossible to obtain" outside Brazil. The need for freezing and preservatives not only adds cost and complexity to the supply chain but can also diminish the fruit's natural qualities.
Pilot Program Overview: Seeing an opportunity to deliver fresher, higher-quality çí to U.S. consumers, Santana Equestrian Private Financial (SEQP) is launching a pilot cultivation program in Canal Point, Florida. SEQP's Soil Division will partner with local farmers to adapt the Brazilian çí palm to Florida's environment, with the goal of establishing a home-grown, fully organic çí supply. A key to this initiative is SEQP's proprietary soil amendment, BioActivium, which will be used to enrich and prepare the local soil for the tropical palm. BioActivium (branded as Activium in SEQP's product line) is an organic fertilizer and soil enhancer developed from equine manure composting, designed to improve soil fertility and carbon content. By rehabilitating and fortifying the Florida soil with BioActivium, the company aims to recreate something closer to the rich, nutrient-dense conditions of the Amazon floodplains in which çí palms thrive. In a similar case, agricultural trials in Hawaii found that matching the Amazon's soil nutrients via amendments was crucial to successfully fruiting çí palms outside their native habitat. Leveraging these insights, SEQP's pilot will test whether Florida's humid, subtropical climate - combined with BioActivium-enhanced soil - can support healthy growth and fruiting of çí palms on U.S. soil.
Strategic Significance: If successful, this pilot could pave the way for farm-to-table çí products that are grown in the USA rather than imported. Locally cultivated çí would allow SEQP to deliver the fruit straight from Florida farms to consumers, eliminating the need for freezing, long-distance transport, and added preservatives that current imported çí products require. Experts note that because çí berries have such a brief shelf life, growing them closer to their market ensures consumers get a much fresher and higher-quality product. The ability to offer "tree-to-bowl" freshness in organic çí
beverages could become a unique selling point in the health food and functional beverage industry. Additionally, domestic cultivation cuts down on transportation emissions and aligns with the broader trend of local, sustainable sourcing. SEQP's use of BioActivium in this project also showcases the synergy between its soil-rehabilitation technology and new crop opportunities: by turning nutrient-poor land into fertile farms, the company can diversify into high-value crops like çí. It should be emphasized that this Florida çí initiative remains a strategic pilot program at an early stage. SEQP is focusing on research and development of cultivation techniques and will not be issuing any revenue or volume forecasts at this time. The çí pilot has been included as a strategic note in the company's latest OTC Markets disclosure and is being announced via a standalone press release to inform stakeholders of the venture. The company believes this initiative, while exploratory, aligns with its mission of sustainable agriculture and innovation. By potentially becoming one of the first to produce organic U.S.-grown çí, SEQP could eventually help secure a domestic supply of this sought-after superfruit - delivering fresher, preservative free çí to American consumers and adding a novel, eco-friendly dimension to its agricultural portfolio.
