During this campaign, which will last until mid-August, West Africa will become the leading supplier of mangoes to European countries. Prized by European consumers, the West African mango is recognized for its beautiful coloring and taste qualities. Juicy and not fibrous, it is deliciously sweet and melting.
This year, the climatic conditions were particularly adapted and favored abundant and homogeneous flowering for a 2022 vintage which looks promising.
In addition to its ranges and traditional packaging certified Global G.A.P, Rainforest Alliance and BSCI, SIIM announces for this 2022 campaign the development of its organic and organic Fairtrade mango offer.
