In Ecuador the extensive damages will slow down exports

The earthquake (magnitude 7.8) which hit Ecuador is one of the worst ever for the country. 

The human loss is important, according to the released figures from the government, the number of victims is 350. The number of people still stuck under the rubbles is unknown. 

Looking at the damages in the coastal region near the epicenter of the earthquake are a concern. Infrastructure (ports, roads, bridges, buildings) are affected and the first consequences of this situation will inevitably slowdowns exports. For cocoa, flowers and bananas.
