π§ Company Overview — “Local taste, industrial scale”
Since 1964, Arlequin Food Products S.A. has manufactured staple foods for the Haitian market, beginning with pasta and later pioneering baked extruded corn snacks locally under brands like CheeCo and Crunchitos. The company operates from 17, Boulevard Toussaint Louverture, Cité Militaire, Port-au-Prince, near the airport corridor—Haiti’s key FMCG distribution axis.
What sets Arlequin apart
-
Deep local roots (since 1964) with long-running pasta lines (spaghetti, macaroni, short cuts) and mass-market snacks recognized nationwide.
-
Category pioneer in Haiti for baked extruded corn snacks (1985)—a segment later imitated by rivals.
-
Household brands with active social presence (Facebook/Instagram/X) that emphasize “pwodui lokal” and everyday affordability.
Positioning vs. competitors: Arlequin competes head-to-head with Stanco S.A. in cheese puffs/extruded snacks and with Bongú/CRISTO, Huileries Haïtiennes (HUH) and Caribbean Milling in wheat-based staples (pasta/flour value chain). Arlequin’s advantage is the dual portfolio (pasta + snacks) built locally over decades with high brand recognition.
