Markets overflow with Pakistan's finest mangoes
If you love mangoes, there's fantastic news ahead! The Qatari market is currently brimming with Pakistan's premium mangoes, and this summer, you'll find your favorite varieties offered at irresistible prices—all thanks to the healthy competition among importers.
Ahsan Manzoor, an importer of mangoes in Qatar, announced the arrival of fresh Sindhri and Anwar Ratol varieties in local markets. 'We have recently received shipments of these popular mangoes by air,' he stated. The highly sought-after Chaunsa mangoes, known for their rich flavor, will be available from July. In addition to mangoes, Ahsan also imports seasonal delights like apricots, peaches, plums and jamun, bringing a diverse selection of summer fruits to Qatari consumers.
Other popular commercial varieties of mangoes from Pakistan are Dasehri and Langra, each cherished for its distinct flavor and aroma. The fruit is in such a big demand that no mango remains unsold on the second day of their arrival during the summer.
Ahsan noted that Pakistani mangoes are appreciated owing to their attractive fragrance, savouring taste and nutritive value.
He blamed exorbitant freight charges for the price hike of Pakistani mangoes in the local market. Due to high airfreight costs, he said, some importers opt for sea transport, which compromises quality due to the extended journey.
'On average, we receive air shipments two to three times a week and deliver high-quality mangoes straight to customers' doorsteps,' remarked Ahsan, who can be contacted at GSM: 30873754 for more details.
