The mango programme · GI-tagged origin · February – August
Mango suppliers from India, to the UK.
GI-tagged Alphonso from Ratnagiri & Devgad, then Bengal's finest until late August — graded at origin, cleared on both sides, delivered to your UK door.
The Orchard
Sea breeze, red-laterite soil, and trees that have fed generations.
Direct partnerships with mango farmers — no middlemen between the branch and your order.
The Harvest
Picked at dawn at optimal maturity. Graded by size, blush and brix.
Only export-grade fruit continues — the rest never leaves the farm.
The Relay
When Konkan sleeps, Bengal wakes.
Himsagar · Langra · Fazli · Amrapali — the Malda belt carries supply to late August.
The Crossing
Air freight for the earliest lots. Temperature-managed sea freight for volume.
Export clearance, phytosanitary certification and UK import — all handled by us.
Delivered Fresh
From branch to British shelf with days — not weeks — in between.
Door to door, to your warehouse or store, anywhere in the UK.
Daily air freight · India → London Heathrow
Fresh fruit can't wait for a ship.
At the height of the season we fly consignments daily — packed and pre-cooled at origin, airborne the same day, wheels-down at Heathrow and cleared by our UK partners on arrival. Your mangoes reach the shelf in days one and two of their life, not week three.

When does the Indian mango season start and end?+
