✦ A National Treasure on the Global Export Map
Egyptian mangoes are among the most distinctive fruits of Egyptian agriculture. Renowned for their exceptional quality and rich flavor, they have become one of Egypt’s top export products, witnessing growing demand in both regional and international markets.
✦ Unmatched Variety and Quality
Egypt grows more than 100 mango varieties, including:
* Zebdeya
* Sokary
* Awais
* Seddika
* Hindi Bissinara
Each variety offers unique differences in size, flavor, and color—perfectly suited for the diverse tastes of global markets. This wide range gives Egyptian mangoes a strong marketing advantage and flexibility to meet varied import requirements.
✦ Early Season, Competitive Advantage
Unlike other mango-producing countries, Egypt’s season starts as early as June and lasts until October. This gives Egyptian mangoes a head start into European and Arab markets—well ahead of competitors like India and Pakistan.
✦ Rising Exports Year After Year
Egypt exports thousands of tons of mangoes annually, with top importers including Gulf countries (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar), as well as Russia and parts of Europe.
In the 2024 season, Egypt’s mango exports reached $141.5 million, totaling 148,000 tons, according to data from the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS)—a record that reflects the global market’s increasing appetite for Egyptian mangoes.
Recently, demand for frozen mango (IQF technology) has also surged, thanks to its convenience in transport and storage, while preserving flavor and nutritional value.
✦ Why Egyptian Mangoes Are Winning Global Markets
1.High sugar content and tropical taste
2.Competitive production and export costs
3.Capacity to supply large volumes
4.Flexibility to export fresh or IQF frozen mangoes
✦ Untapped Opportunities Await
With the global trend shifting toward natural and fresh produce, Egyptian mangoes are well-positioned to enter untapped markets such as Eastern Europe, China, South Korea, and even parts of Latin America—especially as packaging and post-harvest handling continue to improve.
