Pineapples and Hospitality

Since 1493, when Christopher Columbus brought pineapples back from his travels to the Caribbean, the fruit has become a symbol of hospitality, welcome and friendship. In colonial days in America, the pineapple was used in elaborate centerpieces and was a sign of great honor for guests. Other traditions say that the pineapple was used by colonial-era sailors to signify that they had returned home and were welcoming visitors. In this same tradition, our pineapple signifies our desire to welcome our guests and treat them with great honor.
