Among fruits valued by their consumers due to their health benefits, Physalis peruviana L. and Spondia purpurea have special relevance due to their polyphenolic content, ascorbic acid, and carotenoids among others, which provide antioxidant properties. Through the years, fruit production and consumption have increased. A 4.2% annual growth was reported in South and Central America, while in Ecuador between 2013 and 2018, goldenberry farming showed a growth of 10%, with an increment of 160% in its exportation from 2015 to 2016 (Moreno-Miranda et al., 2019).
