"Ready to eat" quality, 300 days a year
The most commonly sold variety in Europe
Egg-shaped, its base colour is green, with a red surface on the areas most exposed to the sun. When it ripens it turns a golden orange colour, while retaining its red blush. Its flesh is an intense yellow to orange-yellow when ripe.
A smooth-textured variety
Oval in shape, its base colour is similar to the Kent, turning an orange-yellow or red when ripe. Its texture is soft and smooth, yet fibrous. Not as popular as the Kent, it is nonetheless playing an increasing role during the periods of low supply during the switchover from one country of origin to the next.
Innovation with a view to delivering quality and meeting consumer expectations
Refining and ripening
Upon request, and in accordance with precise specifications, we accelerate the fruit ripening process by placing it in a ripening room. Our cutting edge ripening rooms,which are fully automated, enable the circulation of hot air around the pallets, thus ripening the fruit evenly. Our ripener ensure the proper progression of the ripening process, 7 days a week, and checks each pallet, crate by crate, piece by piece, prior to every dispatch.
Quality Control
All of our products are inspected upon arrival and thereafter on a daily basis, in order to verify how ripe they are, to monitor their external quality and their taste quality.
Packaging
4kg crate (transported by boat) / 6kg crate (transported by plane)
Preservation / storage
The mango is a fragile product. As with the avocado, if you wish to allow it to ripen naturally it should be stored at room temperature. To accelerate the ripening process, store in a warm location (18°C to 25°C). To slow down the ripening process, store at 10/12°C
