Punto Pio LLC launched its website in May 2024, but our journey began in April 2023 when we started growing our chicken operation. Inspired by three main factors, Punto Pio was born out of passion, market needs, and a sustainable vision for the future. Yari’s love for animals and her fluency in many animal languages made it natural for us to venture into something she was passionate about. For Armando, the drive to make things happen was key—whether it was taking care of chickens, fabricating face-masks or selling NFTs, as long as there was a market for it, he was in.
Over time, the chickens grew unto him, seeing them as potential therapy animals in the future.
We identified a gap in the market: many people desire quality produce directly from the farm, but no company is effectively marketing and building a brand around quality delivery, product, and freshness. Moreover, we aim to inspire the next generation of farmers by integrating agriculture, technology, effective social media marketing, and community outreach to build a sustainable future for Puerto Rico.
Our Values
Exceptional customer service
Freshness & Quality
Fair animal treatment
What We Offer
Currently, we specialize in providing the freshest eggs, although we are actively working to onboard other local producers to our platform. Our chickens are probably happier than their keepers! To us, chickens are not just disposable money bags; they are our family and the life of Punto Pio. They cheer us up and are integral to our daily operations.
Our Customers
Our primary customers are professionals in the Puerto Rico metropolitan area and retirees that understand the importance of quality produce. Our main markets include San Juan, Guaynabo, Dorado, Bayamon, Carolina, Toa Alta, Toa Baja, and Cataño. We go above and beyond to accommodate our customers’ delivery schedules, providing live location updates and notifications upon delivery. If we ever face delays or mistakes, we make it up to our customers with extra eggs.
