Acai primarily grows in tropical regions, with environments like the Amazon River basin being the most suitable. While açaí can also grow in some other tropical areas, such as Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia, maintaining large-scale commercial production and high quality outside of Brazil is considered challenging. In Brazil, harvesting and freezing techniques for acai have been developed over many years, allowing it to be exported while maintaining its freshness. As a result, the brand of “Amazon-grown acai” has been established and is widely supported by health-conscious consumers. Brazilian acai is rich in polyphenols, dietary fiber, and omega fatty acids, making it highly regarded worldwide as a “superfood.”
