Shipping Information
Exporter details revealed after verified importer registration
Alphonso mango (Mangifera indica) is the Konkan coast's signature mango variety, grown in the Ratnagiri and Devgad belts of Maharashtra and recognized for its saffron-colored flesh, low fiber content, and distinctive aroma. Grade A stock at 300g and above with high Brix readings represents the top commercial tier of this variety, hand-graded and cleared through mandatory hot water treatment before export. Mumbai's proximity to the Konkan growing belt keeps harvest-to-cold-storage time short, a real factor for a fruit whose flavor profile depends heavily on ripening under controlled conditions rather than in transit. For UAE importers, premium retail chains, and hospitality buyers, Mumbai-shipped Alphonso offers authentic Konkan-origin fruit, consistent size and Brix grading, and the treatment and phytosanitary documentation Gulf customs authorities require for fresh mango imports.

Sorting to 300g and above removes the smaller, less mature fruit that dilutes both size consistency and average Brix reading across a carton, since larger Alphonso mangoes reaching this weight threshold have generally had a longer time on the tree to develop full sugar content. This grade is what premium retail chains and hospitality buyers specify when they're pricing the fruit as a standalone premium item rather than a bulk commodity.
Standard-size Alphonso, typically 200-300g, still carries the variety's characteristic flavor and aroma and works well for general wholesale, gifting boxes, and retail channels not specifically marketing size as a premium attribute. Buyers should weigh the size premium against their actual retail positioning, since the flavor difference between a 280g and 320g fruit from the same orchard is often smaller than the price gap suggests.
Ratnagiri and Devgad sit along Maharashtra's Konkan coast, close enough to Mumbai that harvested fruit reaches ripening chambers and cold storage within hours rather than days, which matters more for Alphonso than for most mango varieties given how central controlled ripening is to developing its full flavor and aroma. JNPT near Mumbai runs frequent air and sea freight schedules, and exporters here have decades of experience with the hot water treatment protocols this variety specifically requires for international clearance. For UAE buyers, this proximity and treatment-processing experience typically means fruit arriving closer to peak ripeness with documentation already aligned to Gulf import requirements.
2.5kg, 4kg, and 5kg premium retail cartons with individual foam net sleeves for each fruit, standard for this grade and price tier. 10kg wholesale cartons with cushioned dividers for hospitality and bulk retail buyers. Custom gift box packaging with branded sleeves available for premium retail and corporate gifting orders. Palletized loading for air cargo, with reefer sea container available for bulk orders with longer transit tolerance.
Phytosanitary certificate from India's Plant Quarantine Department for every shipment, hot water treatment certificate (mandatory for Alphonso export), Certificate of Origin, GI (Geographical Indication) certification for Ratnagiri/Devgad origin where applicable, pesticide residue test reports available per batch, APEDA registration.
300g+ Grade A refers to hand-sorted Alphonso mango weighing 300 grams or more per piece, generally correlating with fruit that has had more time on the tree to develop full sugar content and aroma. This grade typically carries a minimum Brix of 20-22 degrees and is priced as a premium tier above standard 200-300g sizing.
Yes, Ratnagiri and Devgad Alphonso both hold Geographical Indication (GI) status in India, recognizing the specific soil and coastal climate conditions of the Konkan belt as producing a distinct flavor and aroma profile compared to Alphonso grown elsewhere. Buyers seeking authenticated origin fruit should ask for GI certification alongside standard export documentation.
Hot water treatment eliminates fruit fly larvae and certain fungal pathogens before the fruit clears phytosanitary inspection, and it's a mandatory step for Alphonso export regardless of destination market. Some countries additionally require vapor heat treatment, so buyers should confirm destination-specific treatment requirements before the shipment is processed.
The Alphonso harvest season runs from March to June, with peak volume and quality typically in April and May. Availability outside this window is limited, so buyers planning around this variety should confirm current-season timing rather than assuming year-round supply.
Fresh Alphonso mango is classified under HS code 0804.50.20, the same heading used for fresh mangoes generally. Treatment certification must typically accompany this classification for GCC customs clearance, so confirm both the code and documentation requirements with your customs broker before the first shipment.
