Pakistan loses Iran’s mango market

[INDIC]

source??



did farmers bring with them the climate, soil and environment of UP?

Like Muhajirs introduced Nihari to Pakistan from Uttar Pradesh, it seems same for mangoes.

hinduguy, no offence, but most of the mangoes that come from India taste like chemicals. However Pakistani mangoes are much more juicy, with a better natural taste. I guess everyone has there own opinion.

mehh....you must be an aam-amateur

just by giving them a feel or two you would know whether they are kaacha or not

I use the 'follow the crowd' method while buying vegetable, mango etc coz I cant tell which one is good(I can tell which one looks good)
Anyway most places in UK, they sale mangoes in boxes, and wont even give you to taste.
He just gave me boxes, I just checked the contents(as recommeded by Mohammed Hanif), and told to myself, 'ah mangoes'.
I remember my friend told me, to touch and feel it and smell it if I can, and I even tried, but could not find any smell.
Not willing to look like an ***, I uttered 'good', shoved money into his hand and left the scene.

There was at least one curious guy who was watching me, must have thought, I am mango expert, and probably bought after me.

It's not hard to get Mangoes that come from Pakistan, India or Jamaica after all London has all different kinds of fruits imported from abroad. So to answer your question, I would say yes I have tested them.

in UK do they have any sticker or label for them? or is the ''made in...'' sticker only on the crates

Most of them carry some dont. I dont remember checking any label, because he told me so, and there is no reason for him to lie.

if economies of scale applies -- that's a HELL of a profit margin

Majority of the time Uncle, they seem to have labels or stickers. However most of the Mangoes are sold in Asian local stores which are either Indian or Pakistani's who are kind enough to tell you.

now is the best time to eat them in uk

Looks like cheaper in UK. Here in USA indian mango are way expensive, $2-3 for a mango.

The profit in the Mango sector is huge, however Pakistan needs to package much more better if it wants to compete in the international markets, because half the time when the goods reach the UK, they are rotten.

Not for alphonso.
