Brett Kelly, CEO of Australian Mangoes, stated, “After a year of dreary weather and negative news, Australians can look forward to feeling the sunshine with the delicious tropical flavor of Australian mangoes.”

“Due to the favorable growing conditions over the past few months, we have been able to harvest a lot of fruit in pristine shape. We can’t wait to share these with Australians so they may slice, dice, and consume all of the luscious, juicy sweetness of our mangoes.’

Beginning in October, buyers may anticipate seeing the Kensington Pride mango on store shelves.

Mangoes are a favorite in Australia because they are not only delicious but also high in energy, low in fat, and rich in vitamins, making them an ideal summer food.

Australia cultivates nine distinct types of mangoes for commercial purposes, with Kensington Pride accounting for more than fifty percent of total mango production.

When mangoes begin to appear, we know summer has here.
