Mango trade begins with variety, maturity and intended use—not a generic tropical-fruit label. Tommy Atkins, Kent, Keitt, Ataulfo and other commercial varieties differ in size, color behavior, fiber, harvest window and handling, while fresh fruit, pulp, puree and dried mango are separate products. Comparable offers require variety, grade basis, size or count, maturity, defects, origin, treatment, pack, quantity, currency, Incoterm, destination, delivery window and information vintage.
The figures below are full-year 2024 fresh-fruit trade measures from the FAO Major Tropical Fruits Market Review 2024. The global headline covers the combined HS cluster for mango, mangosteen and guava because international classifications do not always separate them; FAO estimates mango represented about 85 percent of cluster shipments. These are dated flows, not a current physical price.
Mango varieties have different shape, skin color, flesh texture, fiber content, flavor, size and harvest calendars. Fresh whole fruit, frozen pieces, pulp, puree, juice preparations and dried mango are separate commercial forms. Atlas preserves variety, maturity basis, fresh or processed form and intended use before comparing evidence.
USDA AMS mango standards define U.S. Fancy, U.S. No. 1 and U.S. No. 2 using varietal similarity, maturity, cleanliness, form, trim and defect tolerances. That grade basis does not replace count or diameter, maturity or dry-matter evidence, hot-water or irradiation treatment, phytosanitary eligibility, residue evidence, pack style, temperature history and arrival condition required for a physical shipment.
FAO reported 2.6 million metric tons of 2024 exports for the combined mango, mangosteen and guava cluster and estimated mango accounted for about 85 percent. Mexico exported around 440,000 metric tons of mangoes and Peru about 180,000. These dated trade measures establish scale, but a delivered mango price still needs exact variety, grade, size, treatment, origin, destination, Incoterm, delivery window and current physical evidence.
No. It covers the combined fresh mango, mangosteen and guava trade cluster. FAO estimates mango represented about 85 percent of global shipments in 2024 because official classifications do not always separate the fruits.
No. Variety affects size, shape, color behavior, fiber, flavor, harvest timing and handling. The exact variety or commercial type should remain attached to the lot.
U.S. Fancy, U.S. No. 1 and U.S. No. 2 describe maturity, cleanliness, form, trim and defect tolerances under the USDA standard. They do not establish a price or destination-specific plant-health eligibility.
Variety, fresh or processed form, grade authority, size or count, maturity basis, defect tolerances, treatment and plant-health evidence, packaging, cold-chain condition, origin, quantity, currency, Incoterm, destination, delivery window and evidence date.
