Slimmer volumes on imported mango
Mango supplies in North America are currently light.
“They’re coming in from Peru right now and early crop numbers are fairly light due to weather,” says Rick Nagelberg of Panorama Produce Sales in Mamaroneck, NY.
He notes that there are Kent and a few Ataulfo mangoes coming out of Peru. “There are a few containers left arriving from Ecuador and they are also Kents. We have even heard there are a few containers arriving from Brazil as well, also Kents,” he says. “Peru will be with us through late March and Mexico will begin production in late February and then we go to Costa Rica and Guatemala.”
